Wide awake and overthinking

Hey everyone! First time in 2 weeks that I have felt like this. Up until tonight the last couple weeks have been awesome! Feeling good and sleeping great! I might not be tired because I took a little nap yesterday (not a good idea for me) so tonight I could not fall Asleep. I seem to be in my head More than normal and slightly overthinking. I feel like my physical symptoms are back and that's why I'm anxious. My chest is tight and burning. Some sharp pains too. Also my middle of my back is hurting really bad, which is new for me. Anyone awake to help ease my mind a bit?

I'm sorry you are not comfortable. Try listening to some nature sounds-that is relaxing and calming! Like listening to rain fall.

I read a book if this happens to me, usually it does the trick.

I hope you managed to get some sleep.
