This has happened to me. Sometimes I even wake up due to my worries occurring in my dreams. I try to take a few deep breathes and try to count sheep til I fall asleep. But when it doesn't I listen to a bit of music then try to sleep again.
@SweetSunshine Makes sense. I couldn’t go right fast to sleep since my dog had a little tummy ache and now I can’t just knock out and I’m so tired. It makes me anxious. I’ve gone through this before and I sleep but just hate the process.
I’ve had this happen. If I’m uncomfortable maybe I’ll get up and make some tea then try to get as comfortable as I can to go back to bed. I usually sleep without my phone in my room, but if it’s really bad maybe playing something relaxing on it would help to go back to sleep.
Does anyone else struggle with OCD when it comes to breathing? I've had this for about two years now on and off and finally had enough and came on here to say this. When I try to explain this to other people, therapists, etc. they just don't get it, so maybe someone on here does. I literally cannot stop thinking about my breathing and when it is at its worst, the very act of breathing feels incredibly uncomfortable. It feels like the walls are closing in on me, I constantly feel like I'm having to catch my breath, and I constantly feel the urge to take a giant, "complete" breath and that is the only way I feel comfortable. It's usually manageable during the day, but at night when I try to go to sleep it's awful because when my brain has nothing else to focus on it reverts to the breathing. People tell me to just stop thinking about it but I literally cannot. Can anyone else relate or am I all alone on this one
i woke up with my heart racing this morning. i feel like the Lord wouldn’t treat me that way. i feel guilty and i feel like i just keep messing up at every step in my walk w the Lord. i literally just woke up feeling bad. i hadn’t even done anything. i had just opened my eyes!! i’m glad i got called into work so i can do something to take my mind off of the thoughts.
Does anyone else's OCD get worse when you haven't slept well? I haven't been sleeping well since this weekend and my OCD and anxiety is just making me feel super down. Does anyone else have this problem?
