Anxiety unable to sleep

I have this funny feeing as I'm dozing off kind of hard to explain its like a falling and tingling sensation and it keeps me from completely falling asleep. My breathing gets even more shallow plus I get cotton mouth! I've been laying down now since 830 and here I am still awake! Anyone else deal with something similar? And how do you help it?

Yes. I feel like I'm having mini panic attacks while I'm sleeping. I get that tingling feeling and just feel generally uneasy. I have found an app that you can listen to and it relaxes you and puts you to sleep! Let me know if your interested

Go to the App Store and type in meditation. I have really enjoyed it. Very comforting.
