I’ve had issues with insomnia since my pre-teen years, definitely familiar with how much of a struggle it can be. Things are bad and it’s really easy to get into a doomspiral of thoughts that make it hard to just turn off your brain and rest. For me, socializing during the day helps a lot, it pulls me out of my own thoughts, and leaves my brain with good vibes afterwards.

Don’t be afraid to give yourself a break and tend to your mental balance. Take an hour or two before you go to bed and do something to relax and clear your mind: take a walk, a hot bath, listen to some music, etc. Taking care of yourself is important and we all need our maintenance breaks.
