I got zero sleep and now my whole day will be effected. It's my sisters birthday and I'll be extremely to tired to go out tonight. I'm so mad and I feel defective. I'm currently having a break down and I just wante sleep

I know how it goes. Being so stressed about getting sleep basically guarantees that you wont sleep and I myself am much more prone to panic attacks when I'm sleep deprived. Have you tried any medications or supplements to help you sleep? My sister uses ambien and it works really well for her, she always has to be up at 5 am for work. I used melatonin for a while which helped but now I just drink Yogi stress relief tea or bedtime tea it really calms me down! As for making it through the day I would try to avoid caffeine because it fuels anxiety but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Drink water and do deep breathing, more oxygen helps keep yoy awake, hang in there!
