Can we talk about the nurse in Denver who said put the phone down 30 min before bed, because she was dead wrong for me
I tried her rule for 2 weeks and just laid there staring at the ceiling wide awake, but the night I gave up and went back to half an hour of dumb cat videos in bed I was out in 10 minutes, so now I want to know if anyone else sleeps worse when they follow the no screens advice.
My sister is a nurse in Denver too and she swears by that 30 minute rule, but she's also the type who falls asleep the second her head hits the pillow. For the rest of us the phone is basically a wind down toy, and scrolling dumb stuff actually slows my brain down instead of making it race. The real problem is probably the blue light or whatever, not the phone itself, and half an hour of cats is way less stressful than lying there doing nothing.
