Does anyone else wake up in the middle of the night with anxiety and like this sense of dread? A lot of times I wake up like 2 hours after i fall asleep and I’m wide awake for like 30 min

yes...I've done it my whole life since I was a kid....but that's because I was never safe as a kid and always got woken up, or had to sleep with one foot on the floor to move quickly if I had to. As an adult...I still wake up in the middle of the night...almost every night...takes me an half hour to and hour most times to go back to sleep.

I do the same thing. No matter what time I go to sleep I know it's not for to long. Sometimes when I wake up its terrible, my mind is thinking about all kinds of stuff. Things I did,second guessing myself if I did it right. Just all kinds of things that floods your mind. So I'm up for awhile trying not to wake my husband. I would do much like to have a good night's sleep and not wake up with nervousness and the feeling every thing is wrong, that I'm wrong. I wish we had an answer.
