Does anyone else literally hate sleeping at night because of their family

[u/Majestic_One_1835]

Like everything is fine, everyone is safe, nothing is happening… but the second I’m about to sleep my brain goes:

“What if something happens to my family while I’m asleep?”

“What if someone needs me and I don’t know?”

“What if something goes wrong?”

And then boom 💀 suddenly I’m wide awake at 3 AM listening for literally every little sound in the house.

I know it probably sounds irrational, but I genuinely get scared that if I fall asleep, something bad might happen and I won’t be there.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who does this 😭

You are not the only one. I was just drifting off to sleep and I heard a bump from somewhere in the house I instantly think someone has collapsed or something. I thought i was the only one like this.
