o nooo
yeah i think anxiety is involved but it feels disconnected somehow, lately i've been *more comfortable* in my bf's presence than i am anywhere else ever (extremely unusual) but when it comes to sleeping?? just,, no

i think it could be any emotion honestly. once i couldn't sleep at all for an entire night and i think it was guilt / shame but it was really really inaccessible so idk

sleep is one of those weirdly "life-complete" things ime where like anything at all that's off and weird about your life could screw it up. emotional stuff, biological stuff, all sorts of things

it might even be positive emotions! like maybe you feel so good and happy but some of *that's* bottled up which also makes it hard to sleep ime

the way i sees it, if ya still wants to then ya ain't done 😅 i like getting really really overdramatic with it, possibly by myself if necessary. just in the most over-the-top terms possible until i feel like i've actually nailed the feeling
