Exhausted

keptainicandozatt profile image

I'm so sick and tired of feeling like this. When it's evening/night time, my anxiety peaks like crazy. I dread going to bed so much. When I do manage to get to sleep, I dream of the most random things and that interrupts my rest time. Just angry and tired that I feel like this every single day. Each time I feel a new physical symptom, my brain goes to the worst case scenario first. Tired of the aching muscles, the headache, the fear that something really bad is going to happen to me. I feel like I've been doing whatever I can to accept this, but it's like nothing is helping. I could be doing nothing - trying to watch TV and relax, and the anxiety just creeps up on me. Talking to my friends about this makes me guilty because it feels like I'm always repeating the same things :(

Thank you :) I'm trying hard to stay afloat and not to let myself get too beaten up over this!

I feel the same. Try to avoid watching TV or staring at phone screen in the evening. And I take Calms Forte before going to bed. .It helps.

I have the same problem. I have learned that when your body is at its most restful state is when the anxiety gets worse. I tend to sleep with medication music on and if it is getting bad I do a WordSearch, do the states in alphabetical order, if I mess up I start all over. That way my brain doesn’t have time to focus on the anxiety. Best of luck
