this started when i went away for a trip overseas and i was a bit worried i wouldnt sleep due to jet lag, and the first few days of being there i got a few hours each of day of sleep until i was adjusted. however, one day i was anxious and restless, could not stop moving because i worried my SO was back with his ex when i went away. i know he wouldnt do that but i just thought about it and it caused me to be restless. i searched up how to stop moving and saw that restless leg syndrome, and was terrified i had it because it interfered with sleep and i was worried now that if i had this ill never sleep properly again as i read it worsens. prior to this i did shake my legs during anxious times and i still do. it also helps me concentrate, but i don't really feel uncomfortable when im not anxious.The next day, I then started feeling symptoms in my arms and legs, pins and needles and would notice my leg shake more so in anxious times. every day after that i worried ill never sleep again and each day i would not stop thinking about if i could sleep or not. i came back home where i experienced jet lag again and the first day back i couldn't sleep and the second day i slept but the anxiety and lack of sleep made me wake up at times and hallucinate before i would sleep. i started to sleep every other day until the fifth day i was back, which was last friday. with the help of a sleeping pill prescirbed by my doctor i slept fine that day and the second and third day without a sleeping pill i slept fine. i was visiting family up north in a nice calm environment and my SO was there rubbing my feet when i started to feel them because i was so focused on them. ive never noticed my feet bother me or feel weird before. its hard to see beds, to see people sleeping without worry. i would want to go back to when i could sleep fine because i wasnt worried about it. but this obsession is taking up most of my day and its putting a strain on the things i enjoy doing. im currently in therapy i had my consultation last week but i will have another appointment with my psychologist on friday. ive been diagnosed before with OCD, and it was always in the background of my life, but with antidepressants it helped me to function well again. but when I started to feel good again i stopped taking them three years ago, and had nor problems besides minor adjusting of things when they didn't feel right and touching things more than once to prevent something bad from happening.
