Falling asleep during relaxation tape

Hi there. On week 4 now. Doing the relaxation session makes me fall asleep most of the time so I set myself an alarm (unless it's at night of course). Is this common and OK? Thanks for any insight,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I do the exact same thing usually now (unless I'm having an anxious episode) and I think it is a good thing to be able to fall asleep. Back in 2022 my anxiety and panic were so bad that I couldn't fall asleep with or without the relaxation audio, I actually felt worse during and after it. I was getting maybe 2-3 hours of sleep a night, I was so anxious I shook constantly and anytime I would start to drift off I would startle awake with a wave of panic.
