I keep myself up at night.

I asked my boyfriend "How do you fall asleep so fast every night while I stay up for hours tossing and turning?" He told he shuts his brain off. Stops thinking about things he should worry about because he has to sleep.

Sounds simple enough but anxiety filled thoughts aren't gonna just stop at night because I'm tired..

@NerdyPotato I knew someone in uni who did. If she had to nap for 1.5 hours, her brain would be asleep within minutes on command. Her sleep wake cycle was in her control. Weird.

@assemblingaknob weird indeed, but also very useful.

@NerdyPotato yes. She was extremely successful because she could always focus and be present in the moment.
