I really detest sleep. That's not true; I hate getting to sleep. It takes me hours. I fidget, my mind wont switch off, I can't get comfortable. Going to bed has become a chore in my head. I don't enjoy the experience of it, I loathe it, I put it off as much as possible and find ways to avoid it. It's a trial and if I could do away with it altogether I would do. Which probably makes the entire thing worse, because then I associate going to bed as a negative, it's a stressful experience for me which means I can't relax and let go, which keeps me awake for longer, thereby reinforcing the entire problem.
On average it takes me an hour and a half to fall asleep once i get into bed, and thats with the late hours I keep. Generally my only option is to stay up until exhaustion begins to guarantee i'll get to sleep fairly quickly but that itself isn't a pleasant experience nor results in restful sleep, and certainly isn't practical or sustainable on a nightly basis over the long term.
Basically my sleep sucks. But this is nothing we didn't all already know.
This is my first post from the phone app, so apologies if it all goes arse-over-tit.

Well, you can always try running head first into a wall to see if that knocks you out cold, but you might not get up again
