When you're anxious about something, can you sleep?

13 Comments

Let's say tomorrow you're going to another country for the first time ever. Would you be able to sleep?

Nope, I'd just stay up all night tossing and turning. 54
I might get at least 2 hours if I try, but I won't get enough. 65
I'll probably get a few hours less than normal. 70
Yep, I'll be able to sleep without a problem. 16

    It depends on the type of anxiety. If it's like, exam tomorrow anxiety then I sleep no problem but if it's like, oh god one day I am going to die and I will not even see it coming anxiety then no, no sleep for me.

    It would take me 1 - 3 hours of tossing and turning before I sleep.

    If I cant sleep I turn the lights off and put a audio book on and I'm asleep within the hour!

    I can sleep fine as long as I make a note of the thing and stick it somewhere where I'll see it when I wake up in the morning.

    I could be anxious about something and not even realize it. Not being able to sleep sucks
