Things get quiet, there’s less distractions, there’s less to do, you’re left with your thoughts.

This is anxiety about not being able to fall asleep, then you’ll be so tired the next day, which leads to more worries and catastrophizing. • Waking up in the middle of the night • Waking up to panic attacks • Feeling a desperate urge to leave the house, to avoid bed • What to do about sleep anxiety: So yes, nighttime can be really difficult for some people with anxiety.

The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction. • And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/c... • If you are in crisis, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/ or 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or your local emergency services. • Copyright Therapy in a Nutshell, LLC
