      Question: since I am dealing with intensive sleep anxiety, am I supposed to leave my bed (SC) during the sleep window as soon as it sets in? Or do I try to go through the 30 minutes whatever level of anxiety I have? I think it is the former (go directly out of bed if anxiety stays) – but since this could go on and on – when will I be in bed in order to have a chance to sleep, if my anxiety sets in when the head touches the pillow??

        Please don’t try to do this on your own. Sign up for the course if you can, it’s so worth it!
        SC is tough, and I think 15 to 20 minutes is more like it. I would stay in bed longer if I felt Sleep was possible. It did work for me, and yes some nights I was up and down several times.

          I did the course and it worked. But now I am in a deep hole again, my anxiety is higher than befoe. So I wondering how to proceed during my SW when anxiety strikes.
