Hey hello. It’s my very first time using this and I was like abit nervous. I guess u guys who are also in this forum are facing the same problem with sleeping. I am, too. Recently I couldn’t sleep well as I always feel very anxious and couldn’t relax myself when I intend to fall asleep. Bad things come across my mind. I would always think like: would it possible for me to be insomnia again tonight? Will I not being able to concentrate and perform well tomorrow? This usually cause me to keep my eyes opened for the whole long night. Even if I get to fall asleep, the quality is bad. I often have nightmares and weird dreams and it cause me to not being able to sleep peacefully. I would wake up at least 3-4times every night. I’m still facing the problem everyday, like I can’t escape from it. Anyone can help??

Welcome to the forum, Esther. You definitely are not alone in the struggle.

The thoughts you describe are very common and I am sure many people reading your post will identify with them. A couple of things to consider right from the start would be:

The quality of your day isn’t entirely dependent on the quality of your sleep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgVyzX_HHxo

Waking during the night is normal and isn’t something you should be worried about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=329oFzXmwEM

When do you normally go to bed at night, when do you normally get out of bed in the morning, and roughly how many hours of sleep are you getting in a typical night? Do you tend to struggle more with falling asleep at the start of the night, or staying asleep throughout the night (or both)?
