I have the very same issue, even though I love sleep and enjoy my big, comfortable bed. But I'll be fine all day, take my nighttime meds and be ready for bed, then the instant my head hits the pillow I am wide awake and can't shut my brain up. It's like everything that makes me anxious comes up when I'm trying to rest. I hate that.
