Hi kerstynclare...

NO...YOU'RE NOT ALONE!

Pianoguy went through the same drill (circa 4AM Eastern Time) this morning. It took about an hour before he could 'crash again' till almost 7!

I think Sundays are a 'mixed blessing' depending upon who you're with, or if you basically spend the day on your own? Perhaps it's a combination? Of course, if you're a weekend warrior like me , there's always the minor anxiety of screwing up a tune or going 'totally blank inside my head' if somebody makes a request!

Hopefully...each of us will make it through the day?

I'm up this morning. My breakup was just yesterday. It ended on friendly terms -- this was a casual arrangement, but it meant a lot to me. But I knew it was time to move on so I ended it. I told a few friends about it, and I'm a little stung by some comments they made that were a little too close to "I told ya so," though no one's actually said those words. I'm sure I'm just being extra-sensitive right now because it just happenend and I know these friends just want the best for me.

I have been sleeping lightly then waking up in a panicky state....very weird for me. I'm just so scared....I feel so alone without him in my life.

Me too..you call it panic..for me it is a rush of anxiety...terrible pit in my stomach and heart chakra area..ugh...

Here is a positive affirmation that is easy and helps:

I am safe, I am loved

Simple but comforting..I pray to God when these early AM anxiety episodes ocurr..that helps. I dread the night and also hate when the sun light comes because I am exhausted.

I was wondering too what this anxiety at all hours of the night is, falling asleep late waking up realizing he isnt next to me anymore, crying myself back to sleep, having a dream about us being happy, wake up and cry again, this is the worst..
