I struggle to sleep because of racing thoughts due to anxiety

Hi @mvn481

How are you doing today?

I am sorry to hear your racing thoughts are preventing you from a good night's sleep. Let me tag a few other Carenity members to see what tips or tricks they use for falling asleep.

Do you have racing thoughts? Do you struggle to sleep? What is your bedtime routine? How do you help your mind quiet down?

I have the same problem sometimes. I do relaxation technique where you lay on your back with your eyes closed. Starting with your feet say to yourself "all the tension is leaving my feet, my feet are totally relaxed" you imagine the tension moving up your leg. You continue up your body doing this with each part. Ankles, calves, knees and so on. By the time you get to your head you imagine the tension going out the top of your head. I know this sounds kind of weird but it really works, it works great on kids too when they can't sleep.

If you are prescribed meds for this, only take them 15 minutes before you turn off the lights.
tons of weird things happen when you decide to take it earlier. Melatonin is great. But take it with your last meal. Those hours make a difference. If that doesn’t help, try deep yellow wraparound’s like bono does. It gives your a look resembling dusk. Try to put them on around 60. Your circadian rhythm will thank you for it.

The game is very thrilling and scary, creating a feeling of tension and suspense for the player.
