Insomnia Or Demons under my bed?

So I wanna share an experience of mine that I guess including me many of the people face.

It happens to me a lot that when I try to sleep at night but I can't and it is the feeling that my bed is just biting me in some sort of way to keep me awake. But I know that is just my conscious and there are no demons under my bed (really there aren't).

But the problem isn't always staying up late at night you can have some me time you can do something productive in that time and if you've someone to talk to then that's brilliant but if you're alone than the problem arises when you start over talking to yourself and start overthinking about certain thing and this mostly results in retrieving your past bad experiences, some traumatizing ones too which just pushes you into the thought that the person who can't even control his sleep schedule, how can he control the directions of his life in future.

Most of the time you've some important work to do in the morning like going to office, university or anywhere else but still you get caught up in this process which affects your productivity in that work which you were supposed to do the next day and the consequences are never good when you can't give your hundred percent in something.

Many people will give you tons of opinions to reschedule your routine, some will say that start listening to some soothing music, some will say to read a book, some will say to pray before sleeping and I'm not denying from those people. Yes, all of that stuff do work but till a certain point and then the cycle keeps repeating.

Now the question arises why am I writing all this and what's the solution?

So the reason I'm writing this is because it's 4 in the morning and I'm going through the same situation right now. So every time I experience this, I try new things and believe me writing all of this did help me to focus on just one thing but it took my enough time and as usual I've to wakeup at 7:30 A.M for my university so here I am.

But If you experience this than just make a friend who also stays up at night and can talk to you believe me it's the best solution I have so far not the perfect one but still better from other options.
