anxiety only at night????

Question

Does anyone else only experience their worst anxiety symptoms at night while lying in bed...but feel fine for most of the rest of the day (besides the occasional "brain jolt", tingling in a random spot or lightheadedness) ?

Hi,
That used to be when mine was the worst. It was when I was alone with my thoughts, and boy could I ever, create and do the worst damage to myself.  I finally had to move a TV in my room, which I swore I would never do, and I would watch any thing that was funny. Sooner or later I got so attached to the show's that I forgot about my own thought's.

Thanks.  So sorry to hear about your dad.  I'm sure it's because my mind isn't occupied with other things that I do during the day...but every time I get back into bed the whole thing starts all over again.

Hello, I don't really have anxiety, but I have been sad about my dads death. It bothers me more at night, and I think because it is so quiet...your mind can really wonder. It is the time that we think about things, so I can see why anxiety would be worse at night. I just try to stay busy and do something meaningful. I guess we can always find someone nice to talk to hear. Hope you are doing well tonite!
