I have a friend who used to find it hard to get up in the mornings and would start to quickly get into anxiety about the day ahead.
She found that, by putting a positive poem (or some words she liked) by the bed so that they were the first thing she read when she awoke, this helped to remind her of the positive things in life.
Remember, when we first awake from sleep, we are perfectly happy. Any unhappiness comes in as part of the action of the mind taking control. Recognise that you are (your True Self is) in control, not the mind, and perhaps use a technique like my friend did as a trigger to remember that.
Dreading the day ahead is a fear of the future based on experience or learnt behaviour from the past. It is not the present moment. In the Now, there are no problems.
Hugs
Giles
