I'm awake, but sleepy

[Espinoza38]

So who all of a sudden wakes up from a deep sleep in an anxiety attack. Well me of course. And I'm so not happy. All I want is sleep that's it. When will this get better?

[Cat26538]

I know how you feel. I also just woke up out of a deep sleep. Now I can’t go back to sleep

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

Are u ok how are u feeling? Did u have an anxiety attack.

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

I’m extremely stressed out. I’m always having anxiety attacks.

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

Oh no that is not good. I'm full of anxiety also. Do u take any sleeping aids? Do u know what triggered this anxiety? When you do wake up like this does it take you long to fall back asleep or do u even go back to sleep?

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

I can’t take sleeping pills because I od on them. It usually takes me a couple hours to fall back asleep if at all

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

Have u taken melatonin?

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

Yep. Doesn’t work for me

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

Oh ok. What about teas, you know sleepy time teas

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

I don’t drink tea

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

You should try it, it might work. I do my best to drink tea everyday I drank one before bed but I guess it only lasted till 2:30 am. I know one day in the near future we all going to get a restful sleep

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

Right now I can’t even move. I pulled some muscles in my back and my right thigh. I’m in horrible pain. I can’t stop crying.

[Espinoza38 in reply to Cat26538]

Oh no how did u do that? Is that what caused you to wake up?

[Cat26538 in reply to Espinoza38]

I have no idea and yes. I’m still in horrible pain. My leg feels like pins and needles.

I just woke from a cramp in my right calf and cannot fall bank asleep because my mind is going crazy thinking about my depressing life. I am now using tee time to explore this site and get to know people so tat I have someone to share my story and give back. I'm sorry you're feeling the way you are. I know how much it sucks because I also just want to sleep in peace. I'm not diagnosed with anything yet but the feelings you guys are describing are very similar to mines. Thank you for sharing.
