I'm so tired. My husband and kids are sleeping next to me, I feel so tired but when I doze off, I feel like my heart starts racing and I get that "nervous" feeling in my stomach and just been sitting up staring at the walls in my dark room bc I feel scared like idk. I'm staying off google bc it'll make it worse. I hate anxiety' so much!! I've been constantly worrying all month. Also right when I doze off other than heart race and nervous feeling in stomach I'll also try to explain this the best I can. It'll feel like I'm dizzy but not thru my body thru my head like the room feels like it's slightly spinning. Like I took something or drank too much but I'm sober!!

I also wish I could wake my husband but I hate to bc he isn't really soothing when it comes to my anxiety and I don't wanna upset him. I just feel scared right now and alone and why do I always feel like this when I just wanna sleep

Do you know what you are anxious about?

It sounds like you’re having a panic attack. If I were you at this time in the morning I’d just get up and get yourself a hot drink and go and sit on the sofa. Read or put something lovely on the TV, comfort blanket tv. When you’re more awake try and write down a list of what’s worrying you and actions you can take to take that worry away. Share with your husband how you’re feeling and get his support.

Try the breathing technique for immediate relief.

I've been anxious all month about my son. Long sorry maybe you can read from my other posts idk if you can see all my other posts. But I also keep feeling weird feelings like sharp mild pains in my chest but they last like milliseconds and go away so I think that's what got me worked up. I have health anxiety and tend to think the worst by small little spasms and such in my body. My husband is asleep, he isn't that soothing type I know he tries to be he tries hard but if I were to wake him with this after he worked all day he'd probably be upset. It is what it is. Also, it's nighttime where I am. I'm US. It's 12 am. I just enjoy this app a lot Iknow it's mainly UK.

Sorry I didn’t think there might be a time difference. The physical symptoms you have will be anxiety so really try not to worry as it will only intensify then. Breathing deeply is a good idea. Deep breath in for four seconds, hold for four, breathe out for four and then hold for four.
