Just read “Why We Sleep”. Never had a problem getting to sleep until I started reading that book.

I started stressing hard if I didn’t get to sleep right away. Put it down for a few days and all is well again.

Excellent book, freaked me the f out.

That book is one of those hyped volumes on Hacker News which, while good, can have diminishing returns. When everyone claims to get benefits from it, a dissenting opinion can make oneself question one's lifestyle. "Deep Work" by Cal Newport is another example.
