Scared of going to bed

[purpleshimmer]

I have always struggled with sleeping but lately my anxiety seems to have gotten much worse at night.

I'm not sure if it is the heat or what but I seem to still be awake till the early hours. I cannot switch off, my mind is racing and worrying and it's like I just feel so alone and trapped with my thoughts.

I dread the nighttime now as it just seems like horrible time for me. Scared of nightmares too.
Anyone else like this?

Hope your ok.
What is it that's worrying you.
Nightmares are awful, I had them when I suffered a breveament.

Yep, nightmares every night for over 10 years. Things that have helped me fall asleep are a good bedtime routine, mindfulness, weird sleep hypnosis stuff I find on YouTube.

I haven't found a way to make the nightmares stop yet, though I am in therapy for it, I just try to accept that then aren't real.

Night time really can be the worst
