    What do you think about when you're laying in bed trying to fall asleep? I know some people who wait until they are drop dead tired to go to bed because they're unhappy in some way and don't want to think about their life before bed. Whereas I know other people who tell me they sit in bed and think "what am I supposed to think about right now?" They remain pretty much thoughtless until they fall asleep. Then there are those people who tell me it's their only time to think about issues or their life in general and they enjoy that time to themselves to think.

    As for myself my mind is running all day. There really isn't a switch up of thoughts in bed compared to what I was thinking earlier. Maybe I'll think about something deeper than I did earlier because I'm not distracted. I really embrace thinking deeply before bed. I generally don't avoid my thoughts whether they're negative or positive.
     
    usually when I'm laying in bed I'll try to think of song ideas and piece them together and make something nice. or I think about girls.
     
    Pretty much anything that comes to my or my other selfs' thoughts, that can range from what-I'm-going-to-have-for-lunch-tomorrow to how-would-it-feel-to-die
     
    Usually I'm thinking about whatever I was doing before I made my futile attempt to sleep.
     
    When I was younger I would toss and turn for hours thinking about school tests and homework. Later on in life I would game until late at night with a obscure sleeping schedule and just pass out when I finally went to bed. Now I keep myself busy until I'm so tired I fall right asleep. I hate thinking about things in my bed it's wasted time, mostly.
     
    I usually just think about what happened during that day and what's happening tomorrow. Boring stuff like that. Or why I decided to go to sleep that late.
     
    Did my day go well? I sleep with a smug feeling. Did my day go badly? I tend to take a little more time going to sleep thinking about what went wrong and how I can amend it. Same idea for whether I'm not particularly anticipating much the following day or not. If there's something significant the following day, I don't do well at all with getting to sleep the night before since my brain opts to go into the sixth bloody gear thinking of everything possible about that Scenario of Importance.
     
    I always think about video games. Minecraft, Pokemon, Terraria. When I was little, I couldn't sleep... ever. I would lay down at 8:30 and fall asleep at about 1AM
     
    I think about the people I saw that day, and the things I did that day, and who I'll see tomorrow, and what I'll do tomorrow. Most of it is so boring that it puts me to sleep.
     
    Sometimes, if I'm hanging out with someone, I'll reflect on what we did during the day and they end up being happy thoughts :) Also, when I have something planned for the next day, I'll often get so excited for it that I end up not having enough sleep for the day XD During my awful depression period last year though, everything I thought about during bed time turned negative because there was a sense of hopelessness and that's all I thought about. Those days led me to cry during the night for no reason \:
     
    Usually just think about that day and what I do, stuff I can do to improve tomorrow etc. Not much, try to focus on sleep but my brain wanders :P
     
    Thoughts about my favorite anime (lol) and boyfriend rush into my head. Then I start to worry about what my future will be like, how long I'll be living in this house/area, whether or not I'll make it to Japan.. all those fun things. Falling asleep is usually a good time for me despite that but these thoughts can get fairly invasive.
     
    I think about absolutely nothing. I force my mind to be a blank slate and I'm usually out within ten or fifteen minutes... sometimes less. :3
     
    I think up a story to try to influence my dreams. It doesn't work, but it's something to do rather than lay there
