When you're so tired from work and all you want to do is sleep but your mind is all over the place and just won't let you sleep. I guess it got activated from too much thinking at work. I'm counting sheeps and mylotting to make me drowsy. What do you guys do in situations like this?

Oooh cooking videos would probably make me hungry but it seems like a soothing thing to watch.

I count from 1 to 100. It helps than engulfing sleeping pills.
