Coping with nighttime anxiety

Hey there, I completely understand what you’re going through. As a 32-year-old guy who has also struggled with anxiety at night, I know how tough it can be to calm a racing mind and get some rest. Deep breathing and relaxation exercises are great, but sometimes they don’t fully do the trick. Have you tried creating a bedtime routine to signal to your brain that it’s time to wind down? For me, things like reading a book, taking a warm bath, or listening to calming music before bed have really helped. Also, have you considered talking to a therapist or counselor about your anxiety? Sometimes having a professional to talk to can make a world of difference. Remember, you’re not alone in this and there are always people who care and want to help. Hang in there, and I hope you find some peace and better sleep soon.

One thing that has really helped me is creating a calming bedtime routine. I try to stay away from screens at least an hour before bed, and I like to do some light stretches or yoga to help relax my body. I also find that journaling before bed helps me to get those anxious thoughts out of my head. Just getting it all down on paper can be really cathartic. And of course, deep breathing and relaxation exercises are great too! Have you tried incorporating any calming scents into your bedtime routine, like lavender or chamomile? Sometimes a little aromatherapy can work wonders. Hang in there, and keep trying different techniques until you find what works best for you. You’re not alone in this, and I’m cheering you on!
