Can't sleep. Any tips?

I usually hit the sack around midnight, but then I just spend another hour or two tossing and turning because sleep won't come. I've tried every trick in the book—going to bed earlier, staying up later, waking up sooner, eating right before bed or avoiding food altogether, scrolling through my phone or putting it away, even messing with the blinds... nothing works. No matter what I do, I can't escape this restless tossing and turning. It’s driving me crazy.

What could be causing this? Is there any way to fix it?

Stress?

That’s exactly what does it to me.
I hit the sack around midnight, then just lay there staring at the ceiling until 5 AM.😢

And if I try taking one of those sleep aids? Man, forget it. I'm out cold until 3 in the afternoon.🤷

You aren't the only one dealing with this insomnia thing... Sometimes I just can't drift off for an hour or two for no real reason, even though I usually fall asleep pretty quickly. And then I wake up feeling even more exhausted than when I hit the pillow...

Has it always been like this, or is it a recent thing? Some people fall asleep the second their head hits the mattress, while others struggle for ages. Maybe you've just always been wired this way...
