Even when calm, i always worry about not being able to sleep at the moment

[JCRyanDenton]

Thankfully today most of the pains around my body are rarely occurring, especially around the head (neck related, since when i keep my head in a good position while sitting the pain i used to get isn't occuring). But...i keep thinking im going to feel ill when i try to sleep tonight. The past two nights havn't been too good in that regard, often i get to a point where i start to suffer from intrusive thoughts (often with the feeling of dread) and its really starting to depress me. I feel like im losing my mind and i still havn't gotten the results from my x ray last week.

How do you guys cope with situations like this?

Try meditation or mindfulnesd. There is a free app called Insight Timer with some guided meditations. Jon Kabbat Zinn has some good book and cds with mindfulness exercises. They are on You Tube too - search Jon Kabbat Zinn body scan. I find they help.
