In the daytime there Is so much stuff going on so you don't get a chance to really think things over but when your in bed its quiet and dark so unfortunately sometimes you can go over things again and again instead of sleeping especially if youve got something on your mind. It can be so frustrating!

Because at night your mind is more alert as you are trying so hard to make it shut down and rest, therefore it has a lot going on, your mind is a very clever thing and when you're trying to sleep it tries to think ever more as all of your thoughts from that day come rushing back to you

Chances are that you've done quite a bit of work before heading to bed. Shutting off your mind from excessive work and worry about 3 hours before bedtime can be beneficial.

You probably have something in your mind that is important. Or you have been playing games a lot.
