Can’t sleep at night
Anxiety Support / by brownbunny77

...See more I can’t sleep at night at all because I can’t stop thinking. I think it’s anxiety because it genuinely makes my heart race and I can’t quiet my thoughts. The only time I have no trouble sleeping is if I am completely exhausted due to pulling all nighters. I’ve tried melatonin and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. i have no problems taking naps during the day though but for some reason when my room is dark it just feels too much for me. I’ve resorted to using a nightlight to help me sleep to make it feel less ‘serious’ and it helps me a lot. I was just wondering if anyone has a similar issue. I never had this issue before but lately with more and more stress it’s been harder for me to sleep. I do get tired like I want to sleep but when my rooms dark and quiet, my thoughts just keep circling. I’ve tried to ground myself but it doesn’t help at all because my mind ends up going back to the same spot. I look forward to going to bed during the day but the moment I’m in my bed I dread it. I’m just wondering how other people deal with this and if anyone feels the same way as I do about sleeping being so ‘serious’. Sorry if this is silly.

...See more Im quite new to this app and I’m not too sure how this works and I can’t help but feel like a bother when I request a listener. So I’m wondering if anyone is free to listen to me? It would be nice to have someone to talk to since I’ve just recently gone through a break up. I feel like I should say I’m quite an anxious person too. But I just think it would be nice to have someone to talk to :)
