4 Ways to Stop Night
      Anxiety


             By Meital James
    -Natural-AlternativeTherapies.com
50% -70% of anxiety and
  panic disorder sufferers
  have reported having
  night anxiety attacks as
  well. You would think
  that anxiety and stress
  could at least give you a
  break at night – but no.
  Maybe you are worried
  about losing your job,
  your kids, your life.
You go to bed, but toss and turn for an
 hour. Finally you get out of bed at 2
 A.M with full-blown anxiety or panic
 attack.
How You Become Afraid of the
Night




Your anxiety quickly spreads to other areas: a nine o’clock
  doctor’s appointment, the urgent tasks you didn’t get to
  accomplish today, and the presentation you’re going to
  blow if you don’t get some sleep. Awful thoughts fill your
  head:…”I’m going to be a wreck tomorrow”, “This thing
  will drive me crazy”…”Am I going to die tonight?”
The Best Methods to Fight
Night Anxiety
               1. Avoiding prescription
                  drugs – I have tried that
                  out – and it gave me a
                  little relief – but the goal
                  is to get through night
                  anxiety without creating
                  another problem –
                  chemical dependency.
                  Besides, these drugs will
                  never cure the condition,
                  only temporarily relieve
                  symptoms.
2. Avoiding Caffeine,
   nicotine or wine in
   the evening- these
   only made the problem
   worse. I actually tried
   living with or without
   them and witnessed the
   difference. These can
   actually make your
   attacks worse and
   caffeine can actually
   give you insomnia, thus
   you can’t sleep at all.
3. Drinking
  valerian or
  St.John’s wart
  tea – actually
  helped me
  (sometimes)
  prevent night
  anxiety.
• 4. Avoiding bad night
  habits – Don’t look at
  the clock! Ever!
Turn the clock around to
  face the wall, or hide it
  in a drawer or under
  the bed. I was
  constantly checking the
  time and that
  reinforced my thought
  that I’ll never get back
  to sleep.
• Don’t stay in bed more than 15 minutes. I used
  to do this to remind my brain that the bed is the
  place to sleep – not the place for stressing, worrying
  and obsessing. Night anxiety should not happen in
  bed.
• Don’t go back to bed too soon. I only went back
  to bed when I felt I could fall asleep right away. I
  watched, on purpose, a boring TV show or read a
  boring book.
• Before going to sleep, try to watch something
  funny on TV. Never an action film or sad drama.
  Something light, funny and even stupid. Give your
  brain a break and a chance to escape from everyday
  worries.
