im almost 40 and my trick is to not try to fall asleep because if i try i end up staying awake longer due to frustration. i just watch youtube trombone tutorials until i pass out.
A medically irresponsible quantity of sleeping pills and whiskey can solve that problem!
Probably shouldn't mix those
This was a struggle for me at first too.
Until I realized that trying not to think of anything so I can sleep, is thinking about something.
The paradox of "trying" to sleep. The harder you try, the less you sleep.
I'm 30, but I have the same problem and do the exact same thing. I also take a 10mg melatonin capsule at 7:30-8:00 every night
