Hi , to relax us the key to better sleep ,which your body does a lot of repairing itself while you sleep , try listening to natural with rain sounds .. Or take a benadryl . Good night ,have a good nights sleep
I can’t sleep either,I can’t stop worrying about things when I’m trying to sleep. My anxiety gets worse. I hope you get some rest.
its so interesting how similar all our anxiety symptoms are. everything you said i have dealt with. i feel the same way but once i do fall asleep i feel like im hyperventilating. its really super annoying. the only thing that helps me currently is benzodiazapines, but they are a controlled substance and practically impossible to get a prescription. anyway, just know you are not alone!!
This is literally me most of the nights and it’s really annoying. I just want to lay down in my bed, relax and drift to sleep but when I do try to fall asleep, anxiety happens and it’s the same symptoms mostly. Sometimes I do get night anxiety and I usually sleep it off by my body becoming too exhausted after all the panic attacks. You’re not alone. I thought I was the one who deals with panic attacks at night but it makes me less worried to know that others go though the same thing out there. I hope you can overcome it or have a better control of it one day when it does happen again. I’m still learning myself to not fear it since it only makes my panic attacks worst.
