How it works for me:

Go to bed at 10PM.
Fail to fall asleep until 1AM.
Wake up at 4AM because now I have to.

This is the correct answer.

Historical I have always had trouble getting to sleep, and since becoming a parent I experience waves of easy and difficult nights. This has been the case for four years now. For a while here I was falling asleep in minutes every night and things were pretty good. But the past few weeks have been awful. I'll go to bed at 9:30 feeling ready to die, but most nights the last time I remember seeing on my clock was ~2am, and I'm getting up at either 4 or 6 for work.

I don't know what to do, but I'm still ready to die.
