I know for me lack of sleep really ramps up the anxiety and turns it on to the maximum setting.

The only thing that's helped me is to talk about my anxiety with someone (anyone). Usually that dials down the anxiety well enough to sleep which then allows me to cope better.

This is a cycle that gets repeated every so often.
