Any advice would be appreciated

Hey,
I've had anxiety for a couple of years now. It way past it's peak, and my anxiety is generally speaking not so bad anymore.
The reason I am writing this is because I need to know whether someone knows anything about my issue.

It seems that the more I sleep - the more depressed and anxious I am as I wake up and this continues for most of the day. I kind of get out of it in the afternoon.
I always wake up with some level of anxiety/depression - though if I sleep 10 hours it's really intense and unpleasant. 8 Hours of sleep, its still unpleasant but bearable. And 6-7 Hours sleep I find thats when the anxiety/depression is at it's lowest. Any less than that and I'm tired for the whole day.

I don't have anxiety/depression going to sleep, it's only when I wake up.
While I always was a firm believer that my anxiety issues were not physically related, I am beginning to wonder whether that is the case.

And also sometimes when I take a nap I can wake up feeling funny.

Does anyone have any experience or information regarding this sort of thing?

Thanks

Hi Jimmy2shoes,
Yes. This did happen to me too. After waking up from a nap or a night of sleep was the worst for me. I tried to give myself some time to adjust to waking up. for instance, I would give myself an extra 1/2 hour to just adjust to waking up. Have you gone to get any help for this?
