Not eating within 2 hours of bed, and not looking at my phone within 30 minutes of bed both make a dramatic difference.
exactly this. Used to be hours every night. Just didn't bother going to bed until I was falling asleep. Only difference is my "falling awake" happens at 3am -ish. Only an hour or so before I need to get up on weekdays when I don't actually have to get up at 3am, but horrible on the weekends. This morning, I woke at 3ish and didn't get properly back to sleep until gone 7, and had to be up at around 9. oh well
