I have trouble sleeping because I have a hyperactive brain. It has taken me years to learn how to manage this, and this is what I do now: before I get in bed, I search YouTube for audiobooks. I am careful about what books I use because violent or angry ones wake me up but simple quiet ones really help. (White Fang by Jack London was full of dogfighting, woke me up and left me anxious!) My brain has something to do while I sleep, and I'm also very careful about the reader / presenter. I prefer men or women with calm, low-register voices. Instead of worrying about why I can't sleep, I'm listening and drift off pleasantly.
