It will pass. The worst about it is that we need sleep to function and be strong, and lacking it makes it harder to deal with the fight. It is easier to not think about it because with me it just made me anxious to even go to sleep wondering if it would happen again. When I stopped thinking about it like that it did start to get easier. Praying it does for you soon!
What finally helped me last night was grabbing my headphones and listening to some music, I think that helped me focus more on the lyrics and music than how awful my body felt
I hear you Sister I wake up about twice a night, Ive just accepted it grab a banana on my second wake up and lay back down. I stopped looking at my phone or doing anything that would stimulate my brain when I woke up. Then just say a pray and eventually fall back asleep. I totally agree with Ariley' s"chill approach" the less you fight it the better it will be. This too will pass in time.
I understand your pain, I was soooo miserable wandering around the house freaking out because all I wanted to do was get some rest last night.
Hang in there girl! I know how bad the not sleeping is. I have dealt with it my whole life and it can be debilitating and infuriating. Try not to stress and fret over it too much. I know that's easier said than done, but the more you can take a 'chill' approach to the problem, the easier sleep will come. I hope that you are snug in bed catching some much needed zzz'z right now!
I wish I had your spirit.
