Hi
Lack of sleep, especially when it suddenly changes, can create a lot of anxiety in the body. If you got no sleep yesterday and now your sleep has dropped to 5–6 hours, your system is likely in a mild stress-response loop. Gastric issues also make the body feel alert, making it harder to settle into deep rest. This doesn’t mean something is seriously wrong it often happens when the mind is overstimulated or your routine has been disrupted.
Right now your focus should be on calming the nervous system rather than forcing 8 hours. Even 6 hours can stabilise once your digestion settles and your mind relaxes. In therapy, we would work on your sleep cycle, grounding for nighttime anxiety, and reducing the physical tension that is interrupting rest. Take therapy.
