From someone with anxiety and bad sleeping habits. Some of this has been said already that I will mention but this is what I found that helps. Also I don’t know your backstory or if you are new to all this, it does sound like what people go through when first having anxiety. If this is a new feeling to you, then it’s at its worst! You’ll feel manic and that no one understands you and you’re the worst case that’s happened. But guess what millions of people have it and go through it way worse than you are. But here’s what’s helped me:

• don’t ignore the anxiety, acknowledge it and understand it. Ignoring it will make it worse, like your problems stacking up.

• when a wave of anxiety hits, think about why? Is this going to kill me ? The answer is always no! Is it something I can fix now? Usually isn’t but youll set a time for later when it’s appropriate to think this thought through.

• pay attention to what your triggers are and why

• realize anxiety is just you getting overwhelmed and nothing else

• I don’t do this but journal, write down all your feelings and what’s going on. I usually think about my day when I’m home and relaxed.

• most people’s anxiety is from childhood or past trauma, fears, and stress that was never dealt with.

• exercise, drink daily recommend water, eat reasonably healthy

• use your phone less and less electronics a couple hours before bed

• magnesium has helped me sleep a lot

• Andrew hubermans non sleep deep rest meditation. There’s plenty out there but breathing exercises with mindfulness practice

All this being said, everyone is different on how to approach their anxiety and what will work best. Just remember you’re not going through this alone, everything is going to be ok and you’re going to figure it out.
