Nighttime Anxiety – Does Anyone Else Feel This?
Hi everyone, I’ve been noticing something I wanted to share. During the day, I feel mostly okay, and I can manage things better. But as night comes and it gets dark, I start to feel really anxious and scared. It’s like the darkness brings out all the worries and fears I can push away during the day. I don’t always know why, but it’s been tough lately. Has anyone else felt this way? How do you cope with nighttime anxiety?
I struggle with the same issue! Sometimes just as I'm about to fall asleep I have this overwhelming sense of dread - like something awful is going to happen. There's something about the dark that messes with my brain, too. 🤗
I really get what you mean. Nights can feel heavier, like everything gets louder in our heads. It helps to know I’m not alone in that. I’m here if you ever want to talk or just sit through the quiet together.

i’ve been experiencing this too for like the past month now. the darker it gets, the dread starts to get worse. i wish i knew what it was.

Hi there! Myself nicergv. I'm glad you reached out. I'm here to listen and support you. You can share whatever’s on your mind—this is a safe, judgment-free space.
To quote a friend of mine:
"It be like that tho."
lol
Nighttime sometimes brings out my fears and worries, too. Maybe because of the darkness, maybe because of the quiet.
I get this so much! I think for me it's mostly that I don't feel like I accomplished much during the day so at night I just think about it because it's quiet and there's nothing else to distract me. When i feel like this I just get up and turn the lamp on in my room and sleep that way lol.
