Hi I’m interested in what you guys have to share since most people don’t understand and say stuff like ” just close your eyes and go to sleep…” I’ve recently gotten off sleeping pills that I was taking for many years. I usually fall asleep ( if I exercise) but I wake at about 3 am feeling like the roof of my house is falling in… I’m talking anxiety so high it could hit the Moon.  So I struggle with 3 hours of sleep and survive through my life.

Welcome to the forum, Blossom. I think many people will identify with the frustration of being told to just close your eyes and go to sleep! If only it were that simple!!

Congratulations on getting off the sleeping pills. When you wake during the night with a high level of anxiety, what is causing that anxiety? Have you tried getting out of bed until you feel calm and relaxed enough to give sleep another try?
