Tiredness - can it make you numb and anxious?

[Malton Seadog]

I've slept very little over the past two days and my anxiety has hit the roof.

Is this usual?

I'm going to the GP later to have a chat as I feel really wound up today.

Hey There

Yeah being tired can play havoc with our mood. Most definitely !!
I reckon it can exaggerate symptoms and emotions.

Hope u get on ok at doc's

Hope xx

I have not been sleeping well the past few weeks and my anxiety is really intense right now. I know I just need to get more sleep to start to feel better.
Take care.

I've just been prescribed with sleeping pills.

Hopefully a good night's sleep will sort me out a bit!

I can easily sleep right through a whole day if I am not working. I do feel a little anxious when I get up because I feel guilty for all the time I wasted in bed.

When I am tired I am very anxious and vise versa!

Sleeps is very important. Lack of it can mess with your brain chemistry and cause depression and anxiety. I think it's more to do with the quality of sleep than how much sleep you get.
