I hate it when I am laying there ready to sleep and than I think to much bout everything. From work to housekeeping to kids to life. I just can't seem to stop thinking sometimes and just sleep. Which I know my body needs and I know I'm exhausted. Last night to stop thinking I decide to watch a movie till I was to the point of passing out. Thankfully that work. I know this happens to other people but sometimes I just wanna sleep and not deal with it lol.

I have this same problem everynight! I'd get so tired during the day but when I'm already in the bed, I couldn't get to sleep right away because there are still a lot of things swirling through my head. That's why I always have the TV on, and on timer/sleep mode. I'd distract my mind with whatever is on, and I just pass out.

You're right when you say it happens to other. Maybe you are stressed and you need some relaxation exercises like yoga or pilates. Other possibility which can help to fall asleep may be to drink linden-herbal-tea.
