Oof this hits for me. Maybe not as much during the day - my mind is running 110% all the time but I'm a very active person so I usually need to be _doing_ something too.

When it comes to falling asleep at night, and trying to sleep to a reasonable hour though, I'm SOL. No matter what time I wake up in the morning, that's the time I'm getting out of bed, because the second I'm awake my mind start churning through thoughts and what I could be accomplishing that day. Case in point - I didn't have anything to do before work this morning, so I would have loved to sleep in until ~7:30 to catch up on some sleep from waking up at 6am every day this week. 6:32am, wide awake in bed, no chance of going back to sleep.

I like it in some ways - I know I'm driven and motivated. But man I'd love to be able to turn it off sometimes.
