I hope this helps.

Hi Mark,
I tried that but it didn't help me, unfortunately. It feels like my brain is energized/ charged to do stuff. When I started falling asleep, my leg jerks and my body relaxes but my brain refuses to driff off.
The weird thing is that this suddenly started when i felt like I am almost recovered from the concussion. I am not sure if it is a compensation system of the brain going on. I haven't had trouble falling asleep for months.
It also might be an anxiety of the second night after the first night not sleeping.
