Think, write, and think again

Have you ever tried to go to sleep, but ended up thinking about a lot of things? That's what happened to me a lot. I would go to bed, and 30 or 40 minutes later, I would still be awake, just thinking. I would take a pill  to help me sleep, but with no luck. So I asked my mom to help me find a solution, and she said," Maybe you could try writing down your thoughts." So I started to write down my thoughts, and now I don't need to write them down anymore, because I don't have as many thoughts in my head when I sleep.
