Absolutely! I think that is something many of us struggle with, myself even to this day. I’ve been sleeping better, but still struggle with this performance anxiety so to speak more often than I’d like too. To a degree I think it is because we still haven’t fully let go and/or fully accepted wakefulness. There’s still some residual fear perhaps of not sleeping. Somehow we still think we can control all of this. I’m not sure why some nights are better and some are worse for me. But I’m definitely trying to work through this as well.
I don’t have any great advice or tips and would be interested myself to hear other opinions. But I do think this is very common and with time and practice we can get through it.
I’ve experienced this myself and have seen it mentioned elsewhere that this can be pretty common. A lot of times hyperarousal can be present almost 24/7 from what I understand and to a degree that keeps us wired. As we start to understand all of this more and and as we start to improve, that hyperarousal will start to fade and as a result there can be some of that daytime sleepiness. I wouldn’t stress or worry about it. Just do your best to accept it as part of the journey.
