How do you fight the temptation to not look at your phone or other electronic devices after going to bed? - eviltoast

Fml the sun’s about to come up and I still can’t fall asleep. Dear Brain, please shut up.

(side thought: was that basically my brain telling itself to shut up? Useless things like this keep me up at night lol…)

Edit: well hello Mr. Sun. Seems like a lot of people leave their phones outside but I feel like it’d add to my insomnia, having me wonder if family might try to contact me with an emergency. Saw some good suggestions so I will definitely give those a try, thank you!

    I used to always be on my phone in bed late into the night and a way I found to fight insomnia is put phone out of hands reach, meaning you need to get up to reach it, and I would sit on a chair till I get sleepy. You dissociate the bed from phone use and basically train your body to think that bed = sleep instead of bed = doomscroll.
