Anxiety
Sweaty palms, my heart racing, thoughts of darkness and negativity,
I can’t breath, my chest aches,
Tears run down my face, Stomach full of butterflies, I don’t want to get out of bed,
I feel as if I can’t get out of this dark uncertain place,
Sometimes it’s a few days, sometimes it’s a few nights,
Then something pulls me out,
I go back to being my calm confident self,

Restless
Restless I get myself ready for bed every night. I brush my teeth, take my make up off, and wash my face. Then I turn off the light and lay on my right side, I eventually fall asleep. Maybe a hour or so, I wake up abruptly panting, my heart racing, a million miles an hour. It feels like I just ran a marathon. Once I’m awake I struggle for about a half hour or so, to go to sleep. Then I have another episode and the same thing happens a few more times through the night.
