never had a problem with reading

but found going straight from lots of tv or a film, or playing computer games and then straight to bed was a recipe for a sleepless night. and especially so if exacerbated with caffeine and/or alcohol.

though all my problems have been in getting off to sleep. once i was away i was fine. for some people i think it's more about deeper underlying levels of stress, in which case you might need more help/support
