EDIT: also, as I said in my OP, this is a problem I've had my entire life, even in my teens, so it's not age or health related either. I think reading just relaxes me too much. I dunno.
What kind of different devices have you tried / does it change anything at all? As in have you tried to read on the computer, or on a backlit LCD screen, and is it exactly the same as reading on eInk or paper book?

I've sometimes noticed that when I'm tired (even when it's not bed time yet), I nod off far more easily with eInk or paper, compared to LCD (I just really don't like reading on LCD).
