Hey big guy

The worst thing is being so tired but not being able to sleep. I certainly know how it feels. My therapist taught me to get up and out of my room when I can't sleep...go down stairs and watch TV then when I feel tired again go back to bed...they way you are letting your brain know that bed is for a sleep and nothing else.

Hope you managed to fall over xx

Hi bigguy sorry your having a rough time.

Have you ever tried the bach rescue remedy drops? I get these racing thoughts and use these drops and it takes the edge off for me. I've always said I'm not sure if they work or if it's me 'thinking' their working, either way it helps. I know a few people have said the same. There are day and night drops. I find day ones work better and even take then before bed, but everyone is different. Hope this helps xx

Hi Stuart.

Sorry to hear your going through a bad patch, I wish I could help you get to sleep I know how hard it is and how awful it makes you feel. I don't know if the doc can give you anything to calm your tummy but it's worth a try.

Hope you feel better soon Kenny

Hi Stu

Hope you got some sleep & feel better today :-)

You are not over doing things again are you ?

Are you still taking a day or two of for yourself so you can relax & giving others some responsibility ?

Hope you are because I do feel this is sometimes why your anxiety gets so bad at times the pressure & letting go , I know its not easy but I know with practice you can do it & hope you reply you have :-)

Love
