Meditation and deep breathing are the only things that work for me at night otherwise my anxious mind starts to race out of control.

Once I've calmed down, then I start regular breathing.
night is a nightmare for me. i dread nighttime and darkness because that's when my mind races the most. i can't stop thinking of my dad who passed away and then i get really sad and can't sleep. i have to watch tv to occupy my mind. i want to get back to a place of good sleep how i once used to be.
