    Another one that helped me:

    If you’re anxious about stepping out your comfort zone, you need more sleep. I had to do something unusual at work last week, but last week was also the week where I moved my sleep time back to 7 hours (instead of 6). I had no issues going anywhere and was full of confidence actually. Not sure if more sleep helped but I think it did the biggest lifting

      The great thing about this is when it’s your anxiety that prevents you from sleeping well. But if I can sleep (which normally means I can afford to “finish” my sleep and get enough hours after the 2.5 hours no-sleep interruption in the middle of the night), things are indeed better.
