Hi, I believe your stress levels and insomnia are quite normal to feel as we, alone, or as a world haven't seen a pandemic before in our times. Moreover, with the season changing the symptoms that you've talked about are normal too. It's okay to feel scared. Here's a few quick tips for the stress and insomnia:
• Remember you've been following all precautions and that COVID is curable.
• Do deep breathing right when you wake up and right before bedtime.
• Cut down on any stimulants (coffee, tea, cigarettes, chocolates) 5 hours before bedtime.
• No screen time one hour before bed- Pick up reading or listening to podcasts.
• Don't spend time on your bed for other than sleeping at night. Our bodies associate things with feelings sooner than we realize.
• Naps shouldn't last for more than an hour a day.
• Exercise- Basics, really.
I hope this helps and I hope you feel better soon.
