my husband works nights. every night around this time i start getting anxious, and i feel like something bad is going to happen. he leaves for work around 2 am and usually i cant falls asleep. even if i do, the moment i hear the door close i'm wide awake and i have to check the entire apartment to make sure theres no one hiding anywhere. even after i've checked i'm always afraid i wasnt thorough enough so i have to ckeck again. then i spend the entire night staring at the door and the stairs worrying someone is going to sneak down or in the moment i close my eyes. i've talked to him about this before, but he cant change his hours and so i'm stuck in this situation. part of the problem is that i live in a fairly bad area and i dont feel safe. i dont know what to do. i feel this sense that something is going to happen to me even though the doors are locked and he hasnt even left yet. dont know if anyone has advice. just venting cause i feel a panic attack coming on and i'm scared.
