Its a me issue. I've tried melatonin and others but the effects from it exceeded the benefits. I've been like this pretty much all my life. Its just been bad since I started on this last contracting gig.
Is it an anxiety issue?
I've been blessed in that I can turn my brain off, relax, and go straight to sleep.
It drives my wife nuts!![]()

My wife has no idea how I can lay down, turn off the lights, and be sleeping about ten seconds later.
I bet if she started her day at 5:00 a.m. and was on the go until around 6:00 p.m. and then doing stuff at the house after work and then going to bed around 11 or 11:30 she would be out pretty quick too and trying to get a solid five or six hours of sleep before doing it all over again.

I wish I could fall asleep like that. I definitely can't just turn off my brain.
Only need a few seconds to a few minutes to settle/relax into sleep.
I have fallen asleep sitting in the grandstands of NASCAR Cup races. I can also sleep standing up in line waiting. Especially if can lean against wall.
I have occasionally fallen asleep just driving down the road.
Usually at the end of a long week enjoying a stupid long commute in some boring part of the country.
Ding ding ding.
Can't shut the mind off at all. I will wake from sleep with an answer to a question. The whole other end of it is since I've started this contract I'm sitting idle for 8-10 hours+ a day in front of a computer. I know I need to get way more active and that will help a bit but like I said I've always delt with this and I've pretty much given up on meds / aids for it because the side effects just kick my butt. Usually 1 day a week (off day) i can "catch up" a little bit and get a nap in but I have to be super active to basiclly put myself into exhaustion then I'm out clean.
