What changed when I stopped fighting for sleep

I spent years treating sleep like a problem to solve. More rules, more tracking, more effort. It kept getting worse because the effort itself was keeping me awake. The shift came when I stopped trying to make sleep happen and just let myself lie there without the job of falling asleep. Once it stopped being a demand, it came easier. Curious if anyone else found that the trying was the thing keeping them up.
