Insomnia

It’s currently 530am where I am. I have to work my double shift today as I do every Friday. Every time I feel like I can finally relax my current problems I’ve been dealing with start floating In my head. My chest is tight. I keep doing breathing exercises but as soon as I stop my chest tightens again. I took my prescribed sleeping pills around 230. But here I am still awake, still on the borderline of having an anxiety attack. Knowing that in 3 hours I have to “wake up” and start my day that won’t even have a view of a bed until 11pm.

it's horrible.....and I'm sorry your going through that....

I am so sorry to hear that. I hope you feel better soon and get some rest in. Meditating can be quite good for you if you want to try it before bed. Best of luck xoxo.

That’s the worst when that happens. I feel your suffering I’ve had insomnia for months before and got very little sleep and had to work. It was awful.
