Anxiety/panic attacks
I feel like I’m stuck in an endless loop. I start to have sleep anxiety so I tend to get up and try not to force it or fight it but then I still struggle to sleep at all. The next day I’m so exhausted I feel as if I have zero energy for anything else. I don’t want to do anything. I just want to lay in bed all day but I know that’s not helpful. I’m trying to break the cycle but it feels as if I’ll never be better. I feel like I’ve lost all control and just want to be who I was before all this started happening. I feel as if I’ll never be happy again. I don’t know what to do. I’ve tried meditation, random activities such as painting, puzzles, and other mind exercises. I’m just struggling feeling like this.
Hi!
I can relate to your endless loop feeling! It’s always easier said than done. You know there is something going on and that is the first step in feeling better. Please know that you are not alone and keep trying new things. I recently tried journaling and it helps me a bit. Just random thoughts, how I felt through the day, what I’m feeling physically, what bothers me. It helps me let out my emotions.
