Does your anxiety ever do this?

Question

Does anyone else’s anxiety make them scared to go to sleep? I hate feeling like I’m losing control over my body & sometimes falling asleep triggers a panic attack.
I’m so tired but I’m so scared to fall asleep.
I have panic disorder & PTSD.

Answer

I have borderline (bpd) and am the same way. It sucks because it’s hard to explain to everyone else. 
Mine’s more of a FOMO, I never want to miss anything, but it sends me into series of anxiety attacks. Right as I’m trying to sleep. I’ve tried tons of remedies, prescriptions, meditations, etc. Nothing works. 
I’ve just accepted it which seems to make it easier. I know I’m either going to not get any sleep or maybe a little and just kind of... pushed the option to sleep out of my mind. 
If I don’t think of it as something I NEED to do, it comes faster. 
I mean even with the lack of sleep, you are still here posting about it. Either way you will make it through.

Answer
