To get this crazy anxiety mainly at bed time

[dogsausage]

I have a history of anxiety but over real events and things going on in my life

Recently usually before bed I am getting this strange restless anxiety where I feel like things around me are dirty,and
that I need to clean. I am imagining dust and bugs around my bed and have to keep checking repeatedly. It really stresses me out and stops me sleeping, has anyone else had this? It’s really horrible

Also I’m not an overly tidy person generally so this is out of charecter

Sorry I am no expert but that sounds awful for you. I think it’s definitely worth speaking to a health professional. I’ve had some health anxiety. In the pady but since menopause. Have more free floating anxiety. Like a low level feeling of impending doom. Often through the night. Hope you get sorted.

Ah sounds awful, what’s your bed time routine like?

do you exercise enough/drink alcohol?

No idea how old you are but peri can do this - something to do with hormones at bedtime making you feel skittish

I get mad anxiety/panic attacks in the morning which I know is not the same but it’s awful and you have my sympathy but this does sound like it could be the start of an obsessive anxiety, OCD is a type of anxiety disorder. I’d get it checked out now by a gp xx
