Q: Waking Early with Stress

Mostly I worry about money...But, I also worry about all kinds of things.. arguments that are over and done with my husband, my family, work and what will happen that day, schooling (even though I'm not in school anymore...) everything.

I wake up about 4 or 5 am everyday, worried I'm not going to wake up in time, even though my alarm is set. And once I wake at 5, I continue to wake up just about every twenty minutes. I know once I wake up that first time, that I'm not going to get much more sleep.

Sometimes I get up and the first thing I do is rush to the computer to check our bank account to see how much we have left for bills. I stress out so much. And I sit there at the computer doing math and figuring out if we'll have enough and how things are going to work out and etc.

I'm paranoid and anxious, worried, stressed, and scared something bad will happen that day or soon.

It bothers my husband and he thinks I'm crazy when I do this. He gets bothered and it messes up our morning mood before work. Then I feel guilty the rest of the day for being so worried and stressed out.

What can I do to make things better and to sleep through a whole night and calm down my worrying about money, etc. so much?
