My false-awaking crisis #sleepdeprived #couchsleeping #ChronicPain

Today I opened my eyes and was in disbelief, for the first time in years I was pain free upon waking up. Immediately I went to greet my forest creatures by my window to kick off my morning song and then reality sunk in. A dream within a dream. Clearly I hadn't woken up yet...bummer.

Lazy Perfectionist #perfectionsim #GeneralAnxietyDisorder #Organizing #sleepdeprived

It could just be me. My energy level is low but my mind is always racing. I can spend all day in bed trying to sleep but I’m still exhausted. My house is going downhill. I want my house to be perfect and clean. I’m overwhelmed by my personal items and I love my collectables but I want my house “Grown up”. I feel like no matter how much decluttering I do I actually can’t get it to the bin. I want family or friends to visit but, I can’t get it together. I want someone,s help but the pit in my stomach is causing me not too. What if my friends judge me, I’m an adult why can I do this myself?! All I want to is sleep..

#Sleep

Hi🙋I finally got some sleep in 😴. Konked out & slept the day until 12:45 (after midnight). Desperately needed it . Everything will seem better now. I had been horribly #sleepdeprived for weeks.

Almost 3a.m. again #Upallnight #Nightmares #sleepdeprived

Just dont want to go to sleep again. Well let me rephrase I would love to get some sleep to escape the depression, to relax my aching body, to avoid being present in this covid-19 isolation crap to just rest before i really start hearing and seeing things but one thing gets in the way. Nightmares. Getting to sleep is hard cuz im stressed about weather im going to have nightmares and weather ill wake my roommmate up screaming which is so embarassing then if i do get to sleep i inevitably get woke with a nightmare and by then my meds have worn off enough that i cant sleep again without taking more which im not suppised to do. So many good reasons to go to sleep and yet the one negative outweighs them all nightmares....the fear of nightmares.

It's been hard

The last few weeks have been tough. I struggle with anxiety but sometimes it's focused on health anxiety. I fell ill and was on all kinds of antibiotics for 3 weeks all the while I started freaking out if I had covid and it's been sooo hard coping with the kids, I usually need some space, some quiet but having my 5 year old in my face all the time is making me anxious. I feel so bad cuz I feel too exhausted to entertain her yet j know she wants attention and she has not even been following some basic instructions I give her which is winding me up on a daily basis.

Stressed about work


#Anxiety

There’s nothing worse than getting a text from your boss on your day off. That’s what happened to me today. I was minding my own business, trying to figure out how to fix something without having to buy a new one when the text came through.

Boss: Hi you guys I am at the shop and found some brochures for (my cousin’s shop) on the folder this is not one of our customers? Does anyone know about these brochures?

It was at this point that I started to panic because I had been trying to figure out how the folding machine worked using the mock ups I’d made for my cousin’s brochure. (I work in the printing industry.)

Me: That's my cousin's brochure. I was testing out a print for him. I was also trying to figure out how to work the folder.

Boss: How many did you do? I did not know anything about this

My panic rose. It’s never a good sign when I see those words. In my panic, I replied.

Me: Maybe 20. And he is in our customer database. We've done some cards for him in the past. He's trying out a new brochure. He wanted to place an order, but his events got cancelled.

I heard nothing after that and I’ve been in panic mode ever since. I have tried breathing exercises, guided meditation, focusing on something else. I’ve downloaded several new apps onto my phone in hopes of using them for my anxiety, but they didn’t pan out. I even tried 7 Cups, but nothing helped. I’m currently at my wits end, exhausted, and my brain yelling at me that I’m either going to get a lecture Monday or I’m getting fired.

My wonderful friends have been trying to help me as well, but I feel like I’m burdening them with my problems. So I stopped talking to them and am about to hit my last resort: 1mg of Klonopin and 300/30mg of Tylenol with codine. If this doesn’t help me sleep, I honestly don’t know what I’ll do. I am so stressed out over this and I don’t know why.

#sleepdeprived

fifth night in a row that I cannot fall asleep (fallen asleep after 3 am!) . it’s now 2 am and I took a sleeping pill at 0.0.0.0 hoping it would help but noo... even dragged myself up “early” today so I would be tired in the evening. After 2 hours it’s hard to not look at the phone...

anyone else got this problem? got any tips?
