From time to time I have nights when I do not sleep at all. When this happens, on the following day I feel very anxious.
 
When I am very anxious I do the challenge worksheets for my anxious thoughts and I do the box berating, both methods are on the tool box of this program.

Hi Bren,
 
Sorry to hear you had a difficult night. If your Doctor tells you what is causing the anxiety then I would trust in their assessment.  It sounds like you used great strategies to try to relax.  Have you tried the relaxation techniques taught in this program?
 
Members, how do you cope when you are dealing with the symptoms of anxiety?

I was up at 1am this morning,no anxiety,just couldnt sleep..had a cup of tea..went back to bed around 2 or 3 am..fell back to sleep as i was listening to spring rain on my cd..
I woke up again at 6am, this time with some anxiety...i hate it when i start shaking so hard..
I started thing about what was triggering all this..
First,my son wanted to stay here with his girlfriend for a few days..while there trailer is getting ready to move into,,i said NO,now theres more to this,but not now..
Second..i have a big class reunion starting tomarrow, and going to nashville tn to see my other son,wife and gradaughter sunday..
So, i took half of a xanax,and called my endo doctor, as i have issues with nausea, when i start shaking like i do..i am hypo, and that can cause all this to happen,it will be one month come july 2, that i have been on my new dosage of synthroid..
So..what was the trigger??
Was it antisapation of my son, and his requist
Is it the calss reunion
the trip ti nashville?
I did talk to my doctors nurse a few moments ago,and she was reassuring to me,that most all of what iam going through is due to my hypothyroid,,and it should level out in a couple more weeks....as it take 4-6 weeks to get back to normal
Gosh..i hope thing get better soon!
