Anyone experience anxiety / depression for just a few hours in the mor

Posted by applepie @applepie, Jan 25 9:36am

My particular thing.... I feel anxious but ok when I wake. Then will peak along with depression mid morning, then Wayne off and will feel better.

Anyone dealt with a similar pattern and if so how did u manage it?

Please try low dose. My sister's have had great success. I on the other hand have not been helped with meds. Tried all of them over 40 years. Still trying though. A low dose may make all the difference in the world.

Nobody has mentioned Zoloft/ Sertraline. After initially taking Prozac and finding that only made me feel more anxious my primary care physician switched me to Zoloft and it worked wonders. I have been on it for 35 years. During that time I have tried other antidepressants and always come back to Zoloft. It works particularly well when paired with Wellbutrin.
Has anyone else had good luck with this combination?

Anxiety is mostly at night trying to sleep for me. You know the mind is racing but the body is tired. Tried sleeping aids and pills and they do work but it spills into the next day. Making me tired and listless. Exercise is good but it’s not suitable for all age groups or disabilities. So for my anxiety I use the calming app. Breathing techniques. Relaxation modules. It gets the job done. Not every night is a nail biter but when it does I use this.

The “calm” app is available thru most app stores. Some you pay for others are free. My app is called CALM. It lets you direct thoughts and senses to the now. Listening to breathing. What are you touching or hearing. Makes you focus consciously of clearing your thoughts to self awareness. It’s about 15 minutes of mindfulness. Relaxes your body. Clears your head. Peaceful soothing and helps me sleep.

Anxiety and or depression can come any day or time of the week for me. Nights can be worse for sure. Sleepless in Minn. Having Smoldering Multiple Myeloma a precancerous illness is like a time bomb waiting to go off. Never know when it will happen. So I wait and worry stress myself out. Take pills. Stay busy not because I want to but because I have to. A merry go round I can never get off or stop. Never ending.

So it’s free for 30 days. The calm app. Look it up on line and register for free trial. I can’t forward anything thru this cause I am computer illiterate. So the shaking and vibrations are caused by meds? Or is there a nervous condition involved? There is a difference between shaking and vibrations. Vibrations more nerve related and shaking muscle maybe nerves. Not sure. Have you had seizures? Don’t they hook you up and do brain scans while sleeping? Lots of questions.
