Hello Guy!! Sounds like you are afraid of your
bed. :-] Not funny I know but that is how it was
with me for a while.

Have you tried Relaxation Tapes? I mean the
guided visualization/relaxation tapes. I found them to be helpful. You can get them on the web or possibly in big book stores.

Anyhow, see your doc. Try to think positively
and things can/will change for the better. I still have problems on/off. I have had problems
with anxiety and sleep seems like forever.

I have learned not to fight it but to recognize it as a problem and deal with it. Be it with prescribed meds, tapes, yoga, lots of exercise etc. As a result my mindset on dealing with anxiety has changed a lot for the better over the years. Still there but controllable.

For the short term, if you have or can get guided meditation tapes they may help.

Keep in touch!! C. Tuna
