How to treat anxiety that only leaves with sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet: Anxiety is a normal reaction to any form of stress. If it is chronic and there is no evidence of stress, it means that the lower part of your brain is producing the sensation of anxiety for no reason. I have seen hudreds of people with this complaint. Commonest cause is poor diet, particularly sugar and sweeteners. See my blog "oxygen the spark of life".
