Then I'm stressed out and cannot sleep. So a while ago I decided to say to myself "fine, I am just lying down and relaxing, I don't care, I am not going to sleep" and that actually works. When there are nights when I cannot sleep I read until I drop dead regardless of work next day. Tough luck, I'll be dead at work, been there and done that.
So maybe you shouldn't be a big girl, just say to insomnia, fine, I don't care!
