@Ann99 Rough I know and have also been there many times. For me it would be stress, I tend to over think to much sometimes, for my own good.

@Iknowyourouttheresomewhere Yeah, that’s true If we stay awake all night we’re bound to overthink and feel stressed
@Ann99 Exactly 👍

@kittee I dont drink🫠
@Simplyme33 drink beer, its weaker,seriously it makes me fall asleep, a couple can lf bud, in front ofthe tv and im out like a light,if you dont drink it should work faster.
another way is, to pretend you dont care about anything, let things go wrong, as this can stop you from sleeping
