How do I stop over thinking at night?

You can set a timer and journal for a certain amount of time. You let go of all your worries and then clear your mind, meditate, read a novel. There's always time in the morning to solve problems.

Drink some chamomile tea as it relaxes the body and mind, or you can start meditating using applications like Headspace

think of a blank space, white noise, and not tuning in on any noises around me. i dont know, it takes me a while to fall asleep

This is something i struggle with every night but I just say to myself “I’ll think about It all tomorrow” and thay usually works a treat for me!

I find it really useful to use mindfulness and meditation to help me relax and clear my mind before bed. Another thing to try is to play a boring podcast on a sleep timer so you find yourself half listening and half drifting off. “Sleep with me” is a podcast designed specifically for this purpose, where the host talks nonsense and tells silly stories - he has such a relaxing voice that I can’t even tell you what he talks about despite subscribing for over a year! Good luck, it’s not easy dealing with sleep issues but I hope these tips can help!

I was once told the first hour in bed is the loneliest. I have to agree. For me, things tend to feel worse at night. The darkness makes me feel more alone and isolated. I cannot think logically or find answers to problems. Listening to music helps ride out negativity. Also, ASMR helps me relax and have a better nights’ sleep. Alternatively, 7 Cups offers 24/7 listeners and therapists. We are always hear for you. :) x

I find the best way to relax my mind is to go on to youtube and type in ASMR and you will find lots of videos that help you relax

Overthinking at night is something I've dealt with that has caused insomnia. I had trouble falling asleep because the simplest things would cause me terrible anxiety after I analyzed it for hours at a time. I would usually get myself in an environment that calmed me down, and remind myself that what I was thinking was irrational and I was going to be okay.

The best way is possible to focus on your breath so breath in for one hold realise for 2 and do this up to ten. And repeat fives times it help you focus on something other then thoughts which should stop you overthinking all do be mindful that your mind may. Wonder back I thoughts just redirect back once you've noticed it. Or even mindfulness apps can help (headspace is a good one and it's free)

You can always imagine a made-up story in your mind. Whether from a novel you just read or movie you have just watched.
