Hey freshboi46, welcome to 7cups community and 🎈thanks for sharing! First I think you need to lie down, take a deep breath slowly, relax your muscles and I hope you can have a rest after being up for over 24 hours.

Oh my gosh I feel the exact same way. I am going to try meditation and going to a salt therapy room. It is supposed to help with anxiety.

I sometimes have trouble sleeping, and here's what works for me:

-No naps, no matter how tired you are.

-Do not lounge in bed. The bed is strictly for sleeping.

-I like to play with my phone until I fall asleep. For reasons stated above, don't do that. I have a cushion on the floor I sit on with my phone until I feel sleepy, then get in the bed to sleep.

-If I just can't fall asleep for some reason, I will get up and have a small meal. Then I will watch relaxing videos; I enjoy videos of cats purring.smiley It's highly tempting to watch a show or something, but that will only encourage you to stay awake.

-If I'm just so restless and nothing calms me down, I get up and slowly walk around the house for 10 or so minutes. Very light exercise.

-If you feel sleepy at any point during your nightly routine, try going to bed immediately. It might be tempting to finish whatever you're doing first, but you will regret it if you do.

Hi Freshboi.. Don't worry. All I can say is that not many people question themselves like why are they here? And where they gonna go? Etc. At least, u don't follow everything blindly. I believe it is important to know urself and know ur creator. Read the Quran, it may help you with the answers Stay relaxed. Sound sleep comes with being grateful about ur day and forgiving everyone before u go to bed. I hope this helps you
