insomnia is such a stupid way for the body to go wrong. like oh yeah you know this thing the body needs to do for a third of its life? this thing that helps it heal and clean its brain? yeah your body doesn’t know how to do that

Same. Scared me as a kid, staring at the ceiling every night, knowing I was the only one awake.
Still happening (house asleep and I know I’ve several hours before my brain allows my body to rest). 🫠
Same. I would wander around the house at night, not being able to sleep and not knowing what to do about it. Insomnia has been with me my whole life, and no relaxation/sleep techniques have worked for me. Menopause somehow managed to make it even worse!
I do think there is a link between me being autistic and my longstanding insomnia. But I wasn't diagnosed until I was 40. I also believe I have ADHD as well, but the NHS waiting list for diagnosis is ridiculous.
