First off, i wanna start by saying i think i know the reason why i'm having anxiety about sleep. It started 3 days ago when i couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and because of this routine i have (sleeping at 12:00 then wake up at 8:00 in the morning) ofc my mind was pressured. Instead of letting it be, i forced myself to sleep which obviously got my anxiety even worse. 

The next day, i only had 4 hrs of sleep and was basically dying the whole day, dreading the time when night falls. I slept earlier that night (with the help of lofi music to calm down my heart) and got a whopping 8 hrs of sleep just as i wanted tho i did woke up at 5 am and wasn't able to sleep until an hour just staring.. In any case, I tried it again but lo and behold, i woke up at 5 am with only 6 hrs of sleep and FORCED myself once more...

From this recent video i watched, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ8W5IZ8j7Q](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ8W5IZ8j7Q) apparently, I seem to have been avoiding my situation. 

It goes something like:

i'm afraid of not getting enough sleep -&gt; FFF Response/ Anxiety -&gt; Is this actually dangerous? -&gt; No -&gt; Tries to avoid it by changing my sleep schedule to hopefully return that 8 hr goal -&gt; I slept well one time, I should do that again -&gt; and go back to FFF Response/ Anxiety

This post is a bit messy, sorry but you'll understand when you watch the video!! 

But rn, i don't know what else to do. Should i keep doing this? Or do i go back the same way as before, stay up late and stick with the anxiety for the whole night? (which is apparently the ideal one)
