I don't know if this counts as anxiety but I just need some help. I cannot sleep, it's not that my body wont let me, I can fall asleep very quick if I'm comfortable, but that's the problem. There's a good way for me to be comfortable, my feet need to be cold/out from under the covers but the rest of my body needs to be warm/under the covers. Easy right? No, it's not. I can stick my feet out but after a few seconds I hear something in my head say "Something is going to grab your feet" and it's never a killer or something, it's always a monster under my bed. And I tell myself, there's no monster and try again. And then we just repeat until I get tired, my brain would rather make me have trouble sleeping than just admit that there's no monster under my bed. I think it's gone on for a few months and it's gotten so bad that I checked yes on a few of the mental health papers for 'are you tired, drained or just low energy' and now my school counselor thinks I'm in danger. I'm not, I just want to sleep.

I do sleep with a night light too.
