I've noticed a terrible pattern with myself. The moment I wake up I feel a void. I don't really feel like I'm in a void, I feel like I \*am\* a void, if that makes any sense. It's not just an emotional feeling, it's a physical feeling too. It's the worst feeling in the world, in my opinion. Sometimes the feeling is so intense that I almost don't even feel real, it's hard to properly explain. Of course, it's not always just emptiness that I feel, I often feel a combination of extreme anxiety and despair when I first wake up.

More often than not, these feelings ease throughout the day. I mean, it's definitely not ununsual for me to feel these things at any point during the day, I've just noticed that they're almost always at their worst when I first wake up. Does this resonate with anyone?
