What Jensters1205 said reminds me that sometimes it’s easier to fall asleep with the lights on. Why? Because when the lights are off, I feel I’m under pressure to go to sleep – it’s dark, I’m supposed to – and that feeling of obligation stresses me out and keeps me awake. If I leave the lights on, read for a while, and relax, and lay the book open on my chest, and tell myself I’m just resting my eyes for a minute, it’s much easier to drift off.
