Venting how common is having a never ending inner monologue that keeps awake at night no matter how tired you are?

[thereisnoneed]

I always assumed everyone had that never ending inner voice and that their brains never shut down like and SMH managed to live with it and sleep magically, but for me i never learned to deal with it, i have always had horrible sleep problems since my mid teens because of it, when people tell me they fall asleep in 5 minutes every night i refuse to believe it because it always take me forever to fall asleep and if i wake up to urinate or something, my brain will start working again and i will not be able to fall asleep again no matter how tired and sleepy i can be.
