    The coffee thing depends on the person. I know some ADHD sufferers who say drinking coffee before sleep has made it much more peaceful.

    Same thing for decompression. It depends on the person finding something which works for them. For me, it’s sudoku or crosswords. For others, it’s having a drink with friends and venting about the day. Or letting the tv run in the background. Or having a small lamp projecting stars on the ceiling. A long, warm bath. A walk in the dark through open spaces. Cuddling. Having sex. Etc.

    It changes every time, but the idea remains the same, to remove the imprint of the day and allow the mind to move on.
