Annoyed, unable to sleep through the nights, sleeping during the day, often recalling past memories and feeling sorrowful.

Hello, thank you for your question. I hope that some of my suggestions will be helpful to you.

It might be helpful to visit a medical professional for a thorough examination to determine the underlying cause of your sleep issues. This could help to distinguish whether the cause is anxiety or depression-related, or if it's a separate issue like insomnia that's contributing to the problem.

It is also possible to be self-aware. Frequently, when we reflect on the past, it is involuntary, and we continue to dwell on it even when we would prefer not to. Alternatively, there may be aspects of our past experiences that are particularly difficult to forget, leading us to consistently revisit them.

It is important to note that these two situations are different. The former is more likely to be intrusive thinking or forced memories, while the latter is more about something that we can't forget for a long time.

If you feel it would be helpful, you can also try seeking the support of a psychological counselor to assist you in regulating your emotional state. Additionally, you may wish to explore ways of improving your sleep, such as drinking milk or honey water, or using certain sleep-inducing incenses or light music. If it is not an inconvenience, you might also consider incorporating more exercise or meditation, yoga, and similar practices to help regulate your physical state and sleep.

I hope that with the help of a professional examination and support, you will be able to adjust your lifestyle in time without affecting your health.

I would like to express my love for the world and for you!

Dear questioner, Hello!

I am Mu Yu, a 12-year-old middle school student. I have been studying psychology for three years, and I am confident my answer will help you.

Here are some suggestions that will help:

Anxiety can be relieved through dietary adjustment, improving sleeping habits, medication, psychological adjustment, and other methods.

You need to make some dietary adjustments.

Eat three meals a day and stick to a diet that is light and easy to digest. Make sure you eat plenty of vegetables, fruit, fish, and beef to get your vitamins and protein. Have moderate amounts of cereal. Avoid stimulants such as coffee, chocolate, and milk tea.

You can relieve anxiety by ensuring that the neurotransmitters in the brain are in a relatively stable state.

Improve your sleeping habits.

Get to bed and get up early. Cut down on daytime naps and go for a walk. This will improve your sleep quality and help relieve anxiety.

♥ Medication.

If you cannot regulate your anxiety symptoms on your own, you will need to take medication. This will be overseen by your doctor. The same goes for severe insomnia. You will need to take drugs like fluoxetine, paroxetine, venlafaxine, and tandospirone. Your doctor will monitor you while you take these.

Other methods include:

Take up your own hobbies and get involved in activities you enjoy, such as singing, dancing, reading, and studying. These will help to distract your attention and relieve your anxiety.

♥I am certain that you will make a speedy recovery.

I hope my answer helps you.

From my research, I can say with confidence that most friends have trouble sleeping due to excessive stress. This creates a vicious cycle where poor sleep causes stress.

You said you often think back on the past and get sad. This shows you were not in the present at the time. You were following your thoughts to the past and indulging in your emotions. However, you are not your emotions and thoughts. You are a greater existence than your emotions and thoughts. You need to get out of your head, return to the present, and then relax. Help yourself fall asleep.

We can adjust in the following ways:

1. Identify the source of your stress and determine whether you can solve the problem on your own. If you cannot control it, let it go. If you can solve it with your own efforts, give yourself time to do so.

As it says in "A Change of Heart," there are only three things in the world: your own affairs, other people's affairs, and the affairs of Heaven. People are troubled because they don't control their own affairs. They worry about other people's affairs and the affairs of Heaven instead.

Know your own business and know other people's business.

Your own actions and thoughts are your own business, and other people's actions and thoughts are other people's business. The person directly responsible for the outcome of that matter is the one who should take care of it.

2. Release your stress and emotions using the methods that work for you.

If you suppress your emotions, they will manifest physically and affect your sleep.

You can release your emotions in the following ways: punch a sandbag or pillow, go for regular walks in nature, read your favorite books, listen to soothing music, meditate, write for healing, do your favorite sports, talk to the right person, relax with box breathing, release emotions with the empty chair technique, draw mandalas...

3. The "safe haven" sleep aid method is the way to go.

When you fall asleep, you may start to think about the past again. At this time, remember to shout "stop" to yourself and tell yourself that these are just some thoughts of mine. Thoughts are just thoughts, not me. I see that I have some thoughts, and these thoughts are: ... Then, allow these thoughts to flow, but don't follow them. After a while, they will disappear. Take a few deep breaths to help yourself relax and return to the present moment. Remind yourself to let go and tell yourself that it is useless to think about anything at this time. The most important thing now is to sleep. Imagine yourself in a place where you feel the safest. You are there, feeling especially safe. When you feel unsafe, adjust your imagination until you feel safe. Continue to imagine yourself in that place where you feel especially safe and slowly fall asleep with this feeling of safety.

4. Create good sleeping conditions for yourself.

Create a good sleep hygiene environment. Make sure you have a comfortable pillow and soft quilt during sleep. A comfortable environment will relax you and improve the quality of your sleep.

Develop good sleeping habits. Drink some warm milk before going to bed. Avoid coffee, milk tea, and strong tea. Read the newspaper. Listen to sleep music to calm the mind. Take a hot bath to relax your whole body. These will help you sleep.

Do not do anything that makes you feel excited before going to bed. This includes watching TV, playing with your phone, or eating a late-night snack.

Before bed, avoid any activities that might excite you, such as watching TV, playing with your phone, or eating a late-night snack.

It is a fact that persistent outdoor exercise during the day helps with nighttime sleep. People who exercise regularly have significantly better sleep quality than those who don't.

You need to spend more than 30 minutes outside a day to keep your body aroused during the day so you can sleep well at night.

This is for your reference. Best wishes!
