Does anyone else find that they wake up anxious in the morning and spend most of the day feeling super tired because of all the worrying and obsessing? It's only 12 and I am already yawning and feeling tired. Anyone else?

Yes, me too. Anxious mornings... check. Worrying and obsessing? Check. No, I'm not tired. I wish I could be. Insomnia at night... Bzzz bzzz bzzz all day. 🐝
No peace at night? Sorry to hear that, mine felt like after 2 hours of of the thoughts and worries like I was starting to get exhausted from them already
Everyone is a little different I guess, but anxiety is miserable and draining. Have you found any way to manage? I like real high tech solutions such as making myself a cup of Earl Grey tea and trying to find a minute to sit and read. How about you?
Wow it's good there's something that helps distract. Those sound cool.. The breathing exercises my therapist showed me does take some of the anxious feeling away sometimes, that can help apart from that I am still getting to the part where the compulsions and worrying don't interrupt
i reached a point i can't sleep because of it..
I so feel you. After doing all my morning duties and taking care of myself and my animals, when I finally am done I am so exhausted I just want to go back to sleep. Depending on my mental strength that day I will either push through the day or take a 2-3 hrs nap. Then get ready for a night of insomnia. Super fun!🤗
