MyPTSD Pro
I was having a conversation with my friend and realized I do the same thing as her---sleeping to avoid dealing with anxiety, panic, depression, task that needs to be done etc. I feel like it's pretty common even in people without PTSD but was wondering if anyone had some thoughts on it? Like for example, right now I've been sleeping during my writing time because I'm avoiding finishing this book I'm writing. I'm so close to done but what comes next terrifies me, and I worry it'll be a stressor, so I just keep avoiding it by sleeping. I'm so close to done, like a few hours of writing. This morning I just laid in bed for two hours to avoid what I have to do.
Does anyone have some tips about not doing this? Idk if this goes under avoidance, sleep, or general, so if it needs to be moved all good!
