Trouble sleeping

I'm trying to sleep but my anxiety is so bad tonight. Each time I lay down my breathing feels like it's shallow. I hate this feeling. Just trying to calm myself down. Setting my alarm for an hour helps and just breathing. Somedays I just don't get it. I think my anxiety has gotten better but when I have one it's back to square one. I'm doing the whole meds, CBT, therapy, and headspace. I'm just wondering how long, if ever, will life be normal again. I pray, one day, it will be. One day at a time!!
