Do you guys ever find it hard to fall asleep at a semi-reasonable hour because your mind is consumed by anxiety, worry, and stress?
Do you ever lie in bed with awful thoughts racing restlessly through your brain until dawn?
Have you ever tried to keep a normal sleeping schedule, only to revert to your old patterns every time?
It's hard enough dealing with anxiety and depression IRL without having to deal with insomnia and all of its anxieties and miseries as well. Even the very act of trying to fall asleep makes me anxious. I have to wait until I'm nearly comatose and brain-dead from fatigue before my mind relaxes its iron grip on me and I can finally sleep.
Insomnia is such a vicious cycle....I'm so sick of it all. I'm in the middle of resetting my sleep schedule (for the umpteenth time) and I long for the sweet sleep of death. If only I could just lie down, close my eyes, and dream sweet gentle dreams for all eternity.
