Hello all , I have severe GAD and depression so sleeping has always been an issue with me , either not sleeping or sleeping too much. My depression makes me want to sleep but my anxiety is so high especially in the mornings that it's hard to stay asleep . I recently started taking half my Seroquel at night to help fall asleep then in the morning when I pop up awake I take the other half to extend my sleep. If i sleep in it's not a huge problem for me because I really don't have much of a life or things to do in the day time so if I sleep in its kinda just whatever. OK so for the past week there have been 3 days so far of which I just sleep through the entire day. I get up in the morning to feed my pets and then straight back to bed. Its not the "norm" for me but I am starting to feel guilty like I should be awake like normal people . I'm also hoping it is just something to help me cope and that I wont keep doing it.

I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this and how you deal with the feelings of guilt?
