Anxiety about Lack of Energy

Well, my brain has come up with another thing to be anxious about -- being tired! It's mid-afternoon and I'm so sleepy, I'm just bored. It's Friday afternoon and I want to go home. I did Google mid-afternoon tired, seems like its totally normal but I've slept well and have had a relatively stress free day. Kind of put the screws on a co-worker this morning because I was annoyed, maybe that kicked off my anxiety. Not exactly sure. I can't wait to get off work, it's Friday and I've got a great weekend ahead of me.

Anybody get cranky and anxious about being tired? I went for an hour run and really powered through it last night, then re-upholstered my love seat after that which looks great, had only a cob of corn for dinner, and did the laundry, read about two pages from my book, and fell asleep all after 10 hours of work. I guess maybe I should be tired! Who re-upholsters furniture after an hour run? Well, I guess people like me that want to get all lot done before moving. Glad I re-upholstered the love seat, best 50 bucks I spent on fabric and did the whole thing myself, saved a several hundred dollar piece of furniture from going in the garbage.

Its' always so helpful to write things down and share it here. I'm just tired, duh. Anxiety makes me worry about the normal stuff. Now off and on to better things like counting down the clock to 5PM!

I am going through the sorta the same just think I should be tired but not really, did not sleep a lot last night. Its sorta messing with me. I need to get off my butt and get to doing some house cleaning. I will run later I find it helps me. Great work on the couch.

Feeling anxious about being tired is one of my biggest problems as well. In fact, my sleep problems, which triggered my whole recent anxiety episode, came mainly as a result of fear of being tired during work (and not being able to do an efficient job).

I try to take solice in the fact that almost EVERYONE feels tired when they are working a full schedule and have a lot to do. Even if they sleep well, if you ask people how they feel, they will say they are tired. I think that's why everyone drinks so much coffee

Just remember you are not alone.
