Stress/Moodiness/Anxiety
I can tell you about Ann, who was a care giver for her mother. Ann tossed and turned many sleepless nights knowing there was little she could do to help her mother. Ann wanted to help. She wanted to see her mother’s health improve. Meanwhile, Ann’s health was slowly deteriorating due to anxiety she felt, but did not acknowledge. Had she been aware of the damage that stresses cause, she might have spared her own health while tending to her mother. Being aware of stressors in your life is the first step to managing them.
Moodiness and anxiety due to stress can prevent you from getting proper deep rest. Do you have difficulty getting to sleep? Once asleep, can you stay asleep or return to sleep if you awake? This situation will contribute to a lack of energy, and eventually may lead to more serious conditions. There are tactics that will help your body relax and sleep.
