Last night for me was a horrible night, I couldn't sleep after I had a cup of coffee with my friends before. I tried everything to fall asleep but couldn't. and finally I waited for the morning to come.

that is bad for the health. i also had same experienced as yours when i had a cup of coffee before getting bed.it's hard to sleep even you want to sleep. I tried to read and doing other stuffs or thinking about beautiful places in my mind.

I haven't had a sleepless night in many years. But when I had that problem every so often, I hated it. I knew I'd be tired and worn out the next day. And I had nothing to do when I was awake at three o clock in the morning.

when you have insomnia ( unable to sleep) take a cold shower. You will fall asleep.

Coffee contains caffeine that helps you to stay awake. Maybe you had too much caffeine thatsy why you were not able to sleep.

I usually do my work when i can't sleep, just trying to be productive so when i have to come to the office i can take a nap for about 15 minutes 2 or 3 times because sleeping 1 hour straight when i work will get complained by the manager LOL

First of all cup of coffee before bed is not gonna help you sleep. Caffeine is a stimulant. And if its just one night issue, just ignore it. And stay away from coffee after evening. Try some calming music, meditating apps or sleep musics if you experience for continued. And finally consult a doctor and nay be they can help if you cant find anything for yourself
