Anxiety, depression, etc: Morning vs Night...

Posted by Michael83 on January 30, 2007, at 19:11:19

For people dealing with any sort of mental issues similar to anxiety or depression, or just some "mental" issue that is not consistent. (not like germaphobia, but more like depression/moods...etc.)

Do you find that you're better in the morning? Or at night?

A few nights ago, when I was tired and my mind was "weak" (for lack of a better term), I was feeling really scared and anxiety stricken (over my fear of death). Some of you will recognize the following thought; I was thinking, "I have this in my head, there is no way I can get it out and feel better! It's stuck and never leading!" Like it was a incurable cancer.

Lo and behold, the next morning, I woke up. As my mind slowly woke up, I was in the shower thinking and feeling "Wow, I feel really good!" My brain just felt energized and I couldn't even CONCIEVE the negative thoughts (most of my negative thoughts are very abstract and "dreamlike", you know, something you feel and understand, but cannot put into words).

But my mind was just feeling...well, normal. It was functioning normally, blocking out the bad thoughts and the logic and connection with reality was going strong.

Yet right now, it's about 7pm and I can slowly feel it come on, like it does most nights. I don't feel that bad, but I can conceive the abstract thoughts and my mind is a pretty weak, but I'm not panicing and I am doing ok. I mean it's very rare to have a "scary morning," but "scary nights" are quite common for me. I truly believe it has a lot of to do with brain chemistry/energy/whatever. Something chemically. My brain just works more normally in the morning.

But has anyone else noticed anything like this with themselves in regard to night/day or energized/tired?
