Fear of sleep - need advice

For the first time in four years, my dream version of me had anxiety symptoms. Like I had anxiety in my dreams. It’s really freaked me out and made me afraid to sleep tonight. Sleep has always been a more or less solid reset button where I could escape anxiety. For the record my anxiety was starting to feel pretty good in general although my sleep has been out of whack and I’ve been in general burnt out with work and such. Has anyone ever had this? Please tell me that, like a nightmare, it’s only occasional and goes away.
