Hi @Eden1919

I've been away on my break so sorry for the delay. That's not good that you can't sleep! A good idea to have a warm shower to help relax you a bit. I'm not sure what has triggered this anxiety episode for you and your insomnia but I wonder if you think it might be useful to see a Dr later today?

What has helped in the past when you have felt like this?

Rather than stressing about not sleeping, wrap yourself up warm and watch some TV or listen to radio/podcasts to distract your mind.

Take care,

Frog

Hi @Eden1919

Im Arie one of the moderators on the forum. It sounds like things are really difficult for you at the moment. Keep reaching out for support through the forums. Do you find that talking helps?

Sometimes it can be helpful to have a warm shower. What do you have planned for tonight?
