Cantsleep

#Cantsleep

I noticed every time I have something that I KNOW I have to be awake early for the next day, that’s not the usual, I can’t sleep. If I try to force myself to sleep I always wake up like I didn’t take a breath in and have to force myself to breathe, which then my heart is racing & im nauseous. Now my anxiety is high and I can’t go back to sleep. This also happens if I’m overly tired. I don’t get it. I just wanna sleep without waking up in panic and afraid to go back to sleep. Idk what’s even happening. And google scares me more 😭

What’s worse than insomnia? Painsomnia.

Anyone else up and want to talk? Send me a message , let’s be friends :)

I would love to read a book that features a fictional character who has fibromyalgia. Please comment if you have read any good fictional books whose characters have fibromyalgia.

I would also love to see a recommendation for a motivational book for people with chronic pain/chronic illnesses. If it's a book specifically about fibromyalgia, please make sure that the author has fibromyalgia themselves before recommending. I know that that sounds nitpicky, but I have heard enough BS for a lifetime 😅

For those of you who don’t know, I have a really hard time sleeping. I don’t know weather to laugh 😂 cry 😭 or both lol

Laying awake for over 7 hours to get some rest. Physical pain (weather changes ) racing thoughts of self-doubt , overthinking and tears. Reading is not helping. Had a great day with friends & family. Old dark thoughts of being a burden or annoying to everyone. Fighting the impulse to not do something I’ll regret later. Feeling like a kid when aniexty caused stomachaches. When it comes to self-image I am disgusted with myself. Overweight and looking rundown doesn’t. On the up side most my face is finally covered by a mask.
