dorm accommodation anxiety
I'm going into college as a freshman in the fall and I applied for housing accommodations (also academic accommodations) in the form of a single dorm a couple of days ago. I'm honestly worried that, A. I won't get the accommodations I'm asking for, and B. I'm not even valid in asking for these accommodations at all. I've submitted all the correct forms and stuff, I guess I just kind of want an outside opinion as someone who has never really had to think about this stuff before.
I was recently diagnosed with chronic migraines, as well as insomnia. I have been diagnosed with severe anxiety and ADHD formally for about a year, but I have dealt with it my whole life.. The main reason I asked for a single is because of my anxiety when it comes to sleep. I wake up at like 2-3 A.M. pretty much every day, with my heart pounding out of my chest in panic. I need to be able to turn on the lights to help myself calm down and remind myself that I'm safe, and I know that I wouldn't be able to that with a roommate. most of the time i end up staying awake until about 5-6 A.M. because I just end up frazzled and anxious. I also just cant really fall asleep around people in general. If there is someone in my space, it makes me feel like I have to keep my guard up, and it makes the idea of sleep feel impossible because I don't feel like i'm safe. I'm very easily woken up by sound or light, with that "heart pounding" kind of panic every time it happens. I talked to my doctor about this, and I was prescribed prazosin to lower my heart rate while I sleep, to hopefully keep me from waking up so roughly every night. I havent started the meds yet because I havent gotten them from the pharmacy. That and the frequent migraines, probably 2-3 times a week, are my main issues.
