Meditation can be super helpful, for real. I always meditate at night in bed if I'm not already super tired.
Literally just sitting there actively pushing away all thoughts as much as possible. Guided meditations can help to start.
Bad sleep is better than bad and short sleep, maybe you'll eventually get good sleep?
“Alright, self, time to lay down before you conk out. But first, a six hour reel of times women were throwing themselves at you, and you didn’t realize it until years later: a heartbreak extravaganza on repeat. Please cringe until six in the morning, thanks.”
