Do you leave yourself enough breadcrumbs that you can pick things back up in the morning? What's causing you sleepless nights? I find it helps me sleep better as I know I've dumped the context out of my brain and don't need to put effort into retaining it until I can get back to the task at hand.

Not who you replied to but I'm in the same boat re: sleepless nights. It's not quite literally that bad but it's distracting for sure. I just can't seem to leave enough breadcrumbs to stop ruminating about the problem after work. Of course working from home doesn't help the situation. But sometimes it feels like I have to leave so many breadcrumbs and capture so much context that I might as well just do the work...

I don't know.

Could be the ADHD. Over the day I have the meds, but they are bad for sleeping, so I can't use them at night.

The meds calm my thoughts, so I don't have too much competing ones over the course of a day.

On the other hand, there specific kinds of thoughts that don't prevent sleeping. When I think about loved ones for example, I sleep better.

But without meds, I can't control that. When I have unfinished business, it will override everything else.

If I do have a problem then I write down every thought so it's out of my head for sleep. Nothing worse for me than trying to solve the problem mentally when trying to sleep.
