My anxiety is having me go sleepless, or giving me nightmares, the ER is worried about upping my dosage and I was doing it on my own because I can't be without sleep even though I'll get nightmares, but the nurse told me to try to cut down and that it was worrying and she didn't want me to develop a higher tolerance. But way before my previous psychiatrist told me it was okay to tweak a little and find out what worked best for me, I always notified my her and she found no issue and still controlled my medicine until now that I need a replacement.

My main "nightmare" is knowing I'm sleeping but can't wake up, I can feel my body moving and turning, in the morning I can wake up for two seconds to face somewhere else but I'll immediately go back to sleep for another hour, and then again, until I wake up almost a 12pm, when I should've been up at 8, it's like my body is resting really hard when I want to just get out of bed. It's not a real nightmare, it me excessively sleeping and having lapses of consciousness and I'm not really dreaming, I just know inside my head that I should be awake already but my brain ignores me and continues sleeping and it feels claustrophobic.
It's not sleep paralysis, I experience sleep paralysis before waking up or right when I start to sleep, and can't move.
Has anyone had this experience before?

I'm planning on having an appointment soon with a new psychiatrist, but I can barely describe what I'm going through, I can barely describe anything at all, sigh.
