Does anyone else get really bad anxiety before or when trying to sleep?

I get anxiety thinking about anxiety

bedtime comes and my legs jump so bad sleep is nearly impossible. I have to take a really hot shower right before I crawl in bed and do my best to be completely exhausted before I even think about bed or my nights are hell. I believe it's because of anxiety. I lay in bed and stress about everything and then my body will not let me rest

im the same way @jgh2398

and @kiaalford77 my legs get so bad at night as well. its terrible.

im diagnosed with anxiety. but for soem reason at night time it gets so much worse and cant figure out why. the more i think about it and the more i try ro figure it out the worse it gets

@annaandannalise, I have had issues with anxiety also my entire life... when you are trying to relax to end a day our minds go through our thoughts and all of our worries and people with anxiety have a harder time letting themselves relax because of the anxiety. that might not have made sense out loud but I make sense in my head lol. instead of our moment of "ahh. finally peace" we are like "ahh... oh crap, this and that and that and this and no time and uh oh and shut we forgot this or we need to do that" lol its aweful

I've never had attacks if I have they were small but i do get this spurts of anxiety when my chest hurts and heart is pounding so hard a fast

that made perfect sense @kiaalford77 no worries. thats exactly how it is. and how its always been. i wish we could just get a break from our minds for once

@annaandannalise, you and me both sweet girl... but we were made to hold the world on our shoulders for some reason.. I guess because God knows we are strong enough to handle it... so smile although it's a pain in the ass. because we are just a little extra kick ass ;)

yessss all the time. If I know I'm the only one in the house awake it makes it worse too cause I feel really alone 😩😩😩

yes I have had this problem since I was a little girl though. idk why. :/
