Mike,
You got some great responses from your fellow members. Anxiety does take up a lot of energy but your doctor is the best authority to confirm this.
The best solution to get rid of this problem? Tackle the cause: the anxiety. Keep working through the program, session 2 & 3 may be particularly helpful as they focus on challenging your anxious thoughts.
Keep persevering!

Thanks for all your help.. its just for the past week my anxiety had been at high levels. I have been missing a lot of work and I have been feeling feelings that I havent felt for a long time and I cant control them maybe its because where I live it is very hot and humid here and my body is reacting different I really dont know Im just scared for some reason.
Hi Mike,
I agree with the others and think your anxiety has alot to do with your feelings of tiredness. I have noticed that especially after a panic attack has passed and my adrenaline rush is over I am so beat. So if we tend to have even a low level of anxiety over an extended period of time it must take alot out of us. I would allow yourself to get extra rest when possible. It wouldn't hurt to bring this up with your Doctor on your next visit also.
Hiya Mike!
I also have noticed that the higher my anxiety levels are the more exhausted i feel. I think it is very tiring to worry so much for so long. Also, I find that periods where I use more clonazepam I am slightly more tired or drowsy. It is no worse then say taking a strong allergy medecine that can induce drowziness but i can still see a slight difference. I wouldn't be tooworried about the whole tired thing. Feeling anxious is exhausting and i think once in a while our bodies just need to recuperate!

I know that when my anxiety is really bad I like to sleep a lot. I think its because its the only time my mind stops racing with the anxious thoughts. Also, after having a panic attack I feel like both my mind and body are exhausted. Sometimes I feel like sleeping is not helping because instead of trying to work on the problem its like I am not facing it when I choose to sleep.
i have a qustion... for the past week i have been feeling tired and i get 8 to 9 hours of sleep. is this part of anxiety cuz its begging to worry me
thanks mike
