Since several days ago, I sometimes wake up at night and feel anxious. All my problems are like running around my head and I feel short of breath. This situation keeps on durin almost one hour until I get asleep again. Anyone felt once the same? What did you do to overcome such situation?

I have had my times of these; I have been with hard thoughts the couple of days and weeks. I feel these were the cause of my stress which also causes me to have lack of sleep. i can't sleep early and i would wake up almost every time at certain hour of the night. What i do is i would just keep on praying. i would talk to god, and pray to him everything i feel like saying to him... i confide in him and i would feel better, not anxious and i would feel relaxed. i would not notice that i have become sleepy again...

Thanks for sharing your experience. Usually, I don't have troubles to sleep early, as I also like to stand up early. Now, I sleep late and stand up early waking up several times at night. Praying to God is a good way to feel the internal peace again we need, so I also pray to him.
