The reason I ask is many people have horrible sleep hygiene which can and will totally screw up your ability to sleep.
No electronics 2 hours before bed
No tv
No reading . Altho War and peace ...27 lb book might help you to sleep just to avoid reading that door stop. lol
Listen to soothing music nature and yoga are usually best
Soothing tea
Take a shower or bath which helps settle your mind, essential oils , I prefer vanilla and sandal wood . Do not use activating ones like any citrus etc
Even if your unable to sleep make yourself stay horizontal for at least 6 hours, often it's so boring you might actually go to sleep.
Hopefully you find something to help you sleep

Thank you very much. I don't really watch TV and the main reason I use my phone is to come on here or listen to music. Before bed I always shower, for like an hour lol, as long as I'm not super depressed. Then I usually just lay down and listen to music before eventually making my way to bed.
I do drink tea a lot.
No reading? I'll have to remember that.
Usually when I'm not sleeping I'm laying in bed staring at the ceiling, so nothing exciting.
