Anxiety and Sleeping Disorders

Does Stress affect your life?

If you are reading this article you probably do. Young or old, rich or poor, it really makes no difference in your situation or way of life. Stress affects almost everyone in life.

So are Anxiety, and Sleep Disorders related? Some seem to think the answer is quite obvious as anxiety can keep you up all night, and can awaken a person from a deep sleep. In reality the problem stems much deeper than that.

It's important to note and understand the connection between anxiety and sleep disorders, as sleep is part of every day life and very important if you want to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and a lack of sleep can lead to a host of problems.

There are many people who believe there are strong connections between stress, anxiety and sleep disorders, and that many people suffer from alack of sleep as the mind tries to put them out of the picture at night.  But why does this occur?  We all still  manage to eat our meals and shower before we go to work, and manage so many other things even when we are worried.

Why is our sleep pattern attacked so much?  One connection associated with anxiety and sleep disorders is, when you eventually jump into your bed at night. This might be the only real time that you really have the time to think about what you want to think about.

During our daytime the brain is busily sorting out everyday chores and distractions. In the night we have loads of time to start to think about our problems; this can be ok if that thinking is part of a problem solving matter and part of considering ways to fix or address those issues. What normally happens is that we just lay in bed staring into space and assuming that the worst ia about to happen.

So it could be possible that anxiety and sleep disorders are possibly connected because all of this thinking that we do is not positive, and does not help to accomplish anything except to maybe make the situation worse.

They is the possibility that your worries and concerns may cause your anxiety and sleeping disorders worse, and may lead towards you feeling helpless and trapped.  These feelings may lead to a the problems causing your anxiety that cuases you difficulty when you need to rest and relax before its time to fall asleep.  This causes the body to have a hard time falling asleep as it feels jittery and edgy and anxiety produces these awful feelings.

We are aware that this feeling of helplessness can be a big part of anxiety and sleep disorders and really should be be addressed before we try and get to sleep and stay asleep.

One way to look at the connection between anxiety and sleep matters is to approach them head-on.  By trying to make short-term goals and then producing a plan on how to achieve these goals, hopefully this feeling of helplessness can be removed.  Our problems may not disappear over night but you may be able to feel more positive and therefore more relaxed.

Short-term goals should be your aim when it comes to alleviating anxiety and sleep disorders as these problems can often seem too big to fix.  But when we brake them down into short-term goals they are much easier addressed.

When you are addressing these problems rather than letting them overwhelm your thoughts, you are far less likely to have them interrupt your sleep on a nightly basis.
