How to Treat Night Time Anxiety
I would think that the measureless majority of anxiety suffers, would like to be able to treat night time anxiety. I do not see what it is, but having night time anxiety feels tons worse than having anxiety during the day.
I used to suffer through night time anxiety really bad, it got to the stage where I started to dread the night time. And of course the more deliberation that I gave to it the stronger my night time anxiety got. It started to be a viscous circle.
How i learnt to treat night time anxiety, was that i set into place some coping strageties.
The earliest thing I did was to have a dvd player in the bedroom, and watched my favourite films to divert me from my anxiety. As I really considered necessary a respectable nights sleep.
Really what I required was a gap from my anxiety. Concentrating on a film that I liked preoccupied my mind, which gave me small breaks from my anxiety. Although it was more than that, if a distraction could end my anxiety it just proved to me that my belief where manifesting my anxiety.
This in fact started to aid me treat my night time anxiety. A minor break from my anxiety was really appreciated, I can tell you.
I also bought some relaxation cd’s to listen too as I was trying to go to sleep. Being relaxed certainly does improve anxiety. Once we are in a anxious state are bodies are so tensed and primed for the fight or flight syndrome, we in truth need to get our bodies to unwind and feel calm and peaceful. I cannot stress this enough, get your body to relax.
I also tried exercises at night before I went to bed to get clear of all my additional energy. This may possibly sound different but I was up for trying anything to treat night time anxiety. My night time method was exercise, soak in the bath, then either a dvd or a relaxation tape to facilitate me get off to sleep.
You may possibly also try taking some natural herbs at night to help you calm down and get off to sleep. Make sure you ask a specialist who can steer you on what to take and how much to take.
If you do not mind taking medication to treat night time anxiety, then there are sleeping tablets or sedatives that you can take that will help you ease your night time anxiety. Again ask your doctor about what tablets are available and safe to take.
But bear in mind taking medicine for anxiety does not cure your anxiety, but it does give you a respite from it. The best way to treat anxiety is to find a counsellor or personal coach who can assist you to work through the issues that are causing your anxiety. This is the only way to treat night time anxiety and s it.
