Insomnia and Late Night Panic Attacks
Lately, I have really been struggling with insomnia. My body tingles and I can't get my mind to stop racing. Does anyone have any strategies that help them get through this sort of problem?
@jencom468 I can surely empathize, a few years ago what my doctor described as a hole in my sleep began. I would wake up mind racing and incessantly going over work issues that I was worry0ing about. This "hole" began to expand until i was getting very little sleep, and eventually couldn't fall asleep at all. Medications weren't helping, and the depression and lack of sleep were exhausting.
What happened? The major issue was resolved, and I had begun some guided meditation as well. The recovery was very quick. I have since recently been in a minor relapse, but hoping the mindfulness practices I am pursuing and taking action on the current issues bothering me will resolve the sleep and anxiety issues. Hope there is something in here for you.
You are not alone in this.
