I may have phsyical symptoms of anxiety that I ignore. I don't usually feel it because I numb myself. During the night I know that no one will come over. My father comes over during the day sometimes, unannounced. So at night, I know he won't come over, that's one reason I prefer to be awake at night. Also, must of my trauma happened at night (usually after I fell asleep) and I have nightmares at times, so those are reasons I don't want to go to sleep. I also had severe insomnia before for about two months after a trauma (my son was almost kidnapped) to the point I became hallucinating and even before that too, I had problems falling asleep, because I had to stay awake to make sure my son was okay and safe. I suppose it is anxiety, it's just been too much for me to handle, so I've ingored it.
