Why do I wake up sweating?

There could be many reasons for this. Some are hormonal imbalances, such as menopause, or something like drinking alcohol before bed, sleeping in a hot room, etc. If it becomes troublesome, seek a dr.

However, night sweats can sometimes be a sign of an underlying medical condition, so you should see your GP if they keep happening and you're worried.

If I am stressed out about school, or just hot :) I generally only sweat when I wake up in the middle of the night.

I have night terrors, which cause me to panic, which causes me to sweat. It could be something similar. Stress during sleep affects you the same way physiologically that stress while awake does.

There a many different reasons, emotional or physical as to why you may wake up sweating. Such an action is common in illnesses like PTSD, however it could also be that you are feeling stressed or anxious, and it is your body way of letting you know

Night-sweats can be caused by a lot of things...I know I have to deal with this a lot because it's a side effect of my medication. It's important to monitor the side effects of any medications you're taking, so you can weigh the pros and cons, and see if it's making enough of a difference in how you feel to outweigh the negative side effects. For me, it took me a long time to find the right medication for me that worked for my body, so I am willing to live with night sweats in order to feel normal. But it could vary from person to person, so it all depends what you are the most comfortable with. But it never hurts to talk to your doctor if you're ever wondering about something like this!

Whenever I wake up sweating it's usually because I'm too hot. Again it's probably something that I'm dreaming about or something on my mind that's uncomfortable that's coming to the surface.

It's normal to wake up sweating. You could of had a bad dream, you are sick, or the room you're currently in is too hot.

Maybe you're feeling a little nervous or exhausted from having too much on your plate? I find the best strategy to combating the feeling of nervosa is simply taking in deep breaths and drinking plenty of water.

From my personal experience, when I wake up sweating that means my anxiety is a little worse than usual. Take a deep breat . And tel yourself you ARE going to have a good day regardless. Going for a walk and drinking a glass of water helps. :)
