I can't sleep

Well this is awkard usually I am able to fall asleep but I just don't know what the problem is. It's so horrible being awake yet wanting to sleep so bad but I just can't. I'd not fall asleep till 3-4am it's so horrible I just lay awake doing or thinking nothing. Sometimes I think if there's something wrong with me. I need sleep. I need help too 🤕😭

It’s okay it’s not awkward at all. There’s so many things you can do to help you sleep. I know everyone says it but try and not look at your phone when you’re just about to go to sleep. If you google sleep hygiene there’s loads of tips.

For me the thing that really helps is meditation. There’s an app called insight timer that I swear by. It’s all fall and there’s so much choice. I had a particularly bad night last night so I just did a couple and it got me straight back to sleep.

I hope you get some sleep x
