Sever Sleep Anxiety

[SamHose]

Hello everyone,

I am undergoing a crisis of this weird extreme case of sleep anxiety to the point where I am petrified to fall asleep because the whole general idea of sleep scares me severely. This has only occurred recently and I have been so emotionally worn out and depressed. I ended up having to stay up the whole night because I was to scared. Can I please get your guys’s Advice as I am lost in it all and have no solution to help me. I use Melatonin for my sleep which doesn’t work one bit. I also take medication for my depression and anxiety. If there are any tips or solutions for this please reply to this and let me know

Kind Regards Sam.

Hi hon,

i totaly understand what u are going through. About 3 years back I was in my late teens and I was going through the exact same thing one night something just happened and I began getting terrified on falling asleep I thought I wouldn’t wake up. Some people would think what the heck?! But it was a really bad anxiety Andrew I would cry a lot too because of how I felt and then one day I can’t explain it it just went away and now I’m not gonna say I have 8-9 hours when I’m feeling anxious I find it harder to sleep but I can still fall asleep without fear or dread. Calm down a little before bed time like watch a good movie or do a little exercise or read a nice book and before you know it you’ll just say I’m tired and fall asleep. 🙂
