Why am I anxious at night before bed?

Depending on how long this has been happening, it may be caused by events that have happened during the day or right before bed.

Homework for college or work that I have to get up early for the next day! I could be anxious because my boyfriend may be mad at me and won't talk to me.

At night, alone in the darkness and safe under the covers of your bed, your brain can start firing off all sorts of thoughts about life, love, or the day's events. Things that were on your mind, things you've seen or encountered, whatever makes an impact on you: at night you (unwillingly) reflect on them as your brain starts to go into sleep mode. Sometimes these thoughts can be triggering, depending on your state of mind when you go to bed. Try creating a calming night time routine, like taking a warm shower or burning a scented candle with lavender oil; make sure you avoid anything that could trigger your anxiety, like reading messages/news on your phone or watching an episode of a violent TV show. You can try doing 10 minutes of yoga exercises or meditation right before you get under the covers. It might also help to keep a notepad or notebook next to you, so you can scribble down your thoughts when they start to overwhelm you. Listen to some music without any lyrics, like the soundtrack of your favorite movie or some nature sounds; there are some great videos on YouTube. Try a combination of things to find a routine that works for you, and stick to it for at least a week. It should be getting easier and easier to relax before bedtime.
