For the last week or so, I’ve been waking up several hours earlier than normal and not being able to get back to restful sleep. I’ve never had this problem before, I’m just getting more exhausted by the day because I’m not getting to sleep much earlier
Then I find out other people are experiencing the same thing, same timeframe - around a week ago it just started for seemingly no reason
Anxiety?
I never had trouble sleeping til recently and now I wake up multiple times a night and have trouble falling back asleep. Even before when I’d get nightmares (which was often) I could go back to sleep. Those days are over. This has been my life since November and no, I’m not even American. So that’s where I’m at.
Anxiety seems to have been the culprit for me.
I also had the same problem and went on anti-anxiety meds and am back to sleeping through the night and being able to sleep in.
Same, never had trouble sleeping. Now I’m lying awake worrying about life, the universe and everything.
Same here, but it’s probably an eroded feeling is safety due to relationship troubles with kids.
