I’m going on day 3 of being physically anxious 24/7. I believe it started when my loud upstairs neighbors kept me up all night with constant banging and stomping the other night. I have really bad anxiety around sleep to begin with and am the lightest sleeper on the planet. 

Since that night I have been having anxiety 24/7 throughout my day. I have trouble falling asleep and then wake up at 4 in the morning. I’ve been so tired but every morning without fail I’m up before the sun and can’t calm my mind enough to fall asleep again. All I can think about when I go to sleep is “oh god I’m going to hear my neighbors again any second now and I’ll never sleep” 

During the day my heart feels like it’s going to explode. It’s so uncomfortable and I’ve never felt anything like this before. I am starting dental school on Monday which I’m more excited than anxious about so I don’t know if that’s the underlying cause but I don’t believe so.

Any advice would be much appreciated.
