Why waste time tossing around for 2 hours when I could be gaming instead? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I do this as a pro-move tbh. I just make up for it by sleeping late on weekends

Playing video games isn't optimal, but it is better than spending two hours teaching yourself that bed isn't the place you sleep. If you don't fall asleep in ~30 minutes (or feel like you won't fall asleep) get up and read something, and try again in an hour or so.

I was told something similar by a physician. Do your sleep routine, and then try to sleep for about 30 minutes. If it doesn't happen, get up, use the time, and try again after an hour.
