Why do i wake up like this EVERY day ?!?

Question

I am 29, i have 3 kids & own with my fiance an electrical contracting co. I pretty much write my own schedule.

I wake up every single day rushing, running, feeling overwhelmed, stressing out, worring that im not going to get everything done today, and just in a bad mood.

I already take Lexapro and my Dr. prescrbed Xanax 5Mg. But i am not going to pop a xanax first thing in the morning or i really wont get everything done. Those are for me to calm down at night.

I dont know why I wake up like this every day !?!

Is this normal to feel like that when you first get up?

It takes me about 2 hours to get my stuff together it seems like. I spend so much time worrying about what ive got to get done that day.

What can i do & is this normal??

Answer 1

um, i think most people feel half-asleep when they wake up. so no, it's not normal.

Answer 2

either anxiety or OCD, talk to a mental health professional.
