Sleeping issues

I'm so sad and about to have an anxiety attack, my thoughts are scary but the thought of losing someone I love is much worse. I just want to feel okay, it's so easy for other people why can't it be easy for me... Any easy remedies for anxiety that makes it so you can't sleep? I would really appreciate it, thank you.

Try some "mindfulness". Sort of living in the now. Watch some of Erkart Tolle's u tube videos. It does help with anxiety.

I warm bath works great. listen to music to keep your mind off an attack. Not sure your age but if I watch Disney movies with my children or any kind of kid show it makes me happy or laugh.

Great! I'm 26 but I still like to watch kid movies and another thing that helps me is to stay away from sodas. I have major anxiety when I take in caffeine.
