(The minute I read that last part I immediately laughed. I understand, don't feel bad.) That just.. feels like a nightmare lmao, but I'm so happy that you have an easy time sleeping, woo! I'll try that sometime, though..
(I apologize for my late reply as well, I got knocked the fucckkk out.. I hallucinated my pillow was my dad's finger bro.. I even reached out to touch it 💀)
I used to have a very hard time sleeping, but I found a great sleeping strategy, and also got melatonin.
I basically just find the most comfortable position, and don't move an inch. Every thing then starts to bother you and you get itchy, but if you don't react to it you fall asleep fast. (Sorry for the late reply I was getting my ass kicked on darksouls)
