Anyone know about any anxiety caused by dust allergies?
I'm sure it effects me. Perhaps its just feeling horrible or helpless that increases anxiety. Perhaps its from waking up from too much dust in the blanket too close to my face causing me problems. Its been months, so I suppose washing my bed stuff and maybe even vaccuuming might be a good idea.
If there was only a proper mask I could sleep with to give me nothing but fresh air, I'd probably sleep better, and be healthier. I'd wear it all day, and say screw the Claritin D, which is a mighty fine product, but alas, nothing stops all my allergies.
PS: For those of you who actually shower more than once a month and wash your bed sheets and blanket more than once a year, your clean freaks with some sort of obsessive behavior, so don't critize me for my life style. ;) Thats a joke for those of you who don't tilt your head to the side and notice the ;) is a winking smiley face.

Perhaps it has something to do with breathing.
I don't get much firm support with my waterbed. Perhaps if I slept on a flat surface, the organs would be lined up properly and breathing would be easier. I find taking deep breaths does help with anxiety.
