      Hello.

      I’ve gotten myself in a bit of a state with sleep. I thought to myself ‘imagine if you can’t sleep’ one night two weeks ago and lo and behold I didn’t! I’m now stuck in a cycle of anxiety, stressing and panicking about nighttime all day long. Living on adrenaline and panic and generally feeling miserable. I don’t want to be signed off work with anxiety and insomnia but when I don’t sleep all night I can’t cope. I can’t stop the viscoous cycle of anxiety stopping sleep! I try to accept the thoughts but I don’t know how! I’m scared I’m stuck like this forever.

        I thought I was stuck like this forever also but doing good since last April. No medications either, I use to live on benadryl but it quit working so easy to give that up. I hated for night time to come so I can feel your anxiousness. I dont really know what I did, I just said if I dont sleep, I will eventually. My hours are 12 until 6 and last 2 mornings I slept til 8 oclock. Usually it is 6 or 7. It is like other things in life you cant control. I do know I can sleep, at one point I thought I could not.
