Anxiety and sleeping problems?
Anxiety Support / by PenguinFriend8880

...See more Hello. Usually I hear about how people with anxiety suffer from sleeping problems as well, especially where you don't sleep enough. However, that is not the case for me. I am not good at falling asleep and if my sleeping pattern gets messed up it's really difficult for me to sleep, but when I am asleep I can sleep for a very long time. I am always tired, but not because I don't get enough sleep. It sometimes seems like it is due to social situations throughout the day, because I find them so so so exhausting. So... this post is just me being curious as to if I am the only one that feels this way?

...See more Hello Is it normal not to suffer from sleep deprivation, when suffering from anxiety? I am pretty much always tired but I sleep 7+ hours each night and "never really" have trouble sleeping, which I think is uncommon when it comes to anxiety. Is this true?

My parents don't care

...See more I've never been one to ask my parents for help for anything, especially not homework. But lately I'm very behind with assignments and I have one assignment that I'm really struggling with. It's a 5-hour assignment due to Monday and I only have tonight free to make it, and I asked my parents to help me get started by just reading the story, that I'm supposed to be analyzing, but they told me they were busy and they would look at it tomorrow though they know I'm behind already... I feel like they don't care about me. :-(
