I’ve been in your predicament many times throughout my journey with anxiety. One thing I know for sure is you absolutely will not wind up in the hospital. You will sleep eventually, but you’re going to feel terrible until you do because you’re focused on fear of wakefulness.
It’s a brutal cycle that needs to be interrupted. A lot of people that are in this success forum seemed to have broken that cycle. It seems they lost their fear of wakefulness and learned to accept whatever comes. I know that is the key to getting past all anxiety, including insomnia.
It’s easier said than done. I’m determined to get passed this crap. Don’t give up!

Hello Ginte — sleep always happens once we’ve been awake for long enough, no matter how anxious we might feel. And, there’s no evidence that chronic insomnia causes any health problem whatsoever.

As @Time4sumaction shared, often the real struggle comes from all our attempts to fight or avoid insomnia (and the anxiety that can often come with it). The more we try, the more difficult it becomes.

When there’s less struggle, when we aren’t trying quite so hard to fight or avoid wakefulness or certain thoughts and feelings, they can start to lose their power and influence over us. And, when we aren’t going to war with invisible “enemies” at night, sleep might — as a bonus — be more likely to show up, too.
