It is indeed challenging to manage anxiety, especially at night. Here are some strategies to help you cope:
Establish a bedtime routine. Engage in calming activities, like reading or meditation, to signal your body that it’s time to sleep.
Practice relaxation techniques. Regularly try deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or yoga to reduce overall anxiety.
Challenge negative thought, When anxious thoughts arise, reframe them in a more positive and realistic light. Identify the trigger and address the root cause.
Limit exposure to screens before bed. The blue light emitted can interfere with your sleep.
Exercise regularly. Physical activity can help reduce anxiety, but avoid vigorous exercise within a few hours of bedtime.
Consider journaling. Writing down your thoughts and feelings can help process and release them.
Seek professional help. Consult a counsellor to address underlying issues and develop personalized coping strategies.
Remember, overcoming anxiety takes time and patience. Be gentle with yourself and celebrate small victories.
