Most nights that I have the luxury of being able to be in bed for 6-7 hours (once or twice a week if I’m lucky), I can never actually sleep because my mind is constantly thinking about work tasks/meetings I have the following day. Does this happen to anyone else? Feel like a zombie these days.
Anyone have any suggestions/recommendations?

Having similar issue but because of toxic work environment
Out of curiosity, do you take work stuff personally? Work is just work, do your very best and then let it go and fall where it may. Fuck everyone else.
If you were an intern, and senior people threaten you and you were afraid of doing tasks because of mistake, I don't think you would sleep well either
CBD is so helpful for sleep. 20mg 30 mins before you intend to go to bed. Works fucking wonders.
How is the wake up though?
I didn't notice much from CBD, but have noticed a much better quality of sleep from a magnesium supplement. Can notice it next morning if I forget to take it.
I keep a journal next to my bed. If I think about something work related, I write it down, and then it leaves my head. I do this for ~10 minutes and usually I exhaust everything at that point. You would be surprised how long you ruminate about so few topics and so if you can tick through those topics quickly and put them on paper, your mind can push them out and you can feel safe to fall asleep given you can come back to them in the morning in your notepad. Try this for two weeks before writing it off (no pun intended). Good luck.
