I know this is WhitePeopleTwitter, and not a direct ask; but the easiest way is to tackle it from the wake-up time, rather than forcing yourself to try and fall asleep at 10pm.
Pick a day with few responsibilities, (e.g. Saturday ) that way you won’t be too negatively impacted if you don’t get enough sleep. Set MULTIPLE alarms to 6am to force you out of bed; proceed with your day as normal, minimise screen time and bright lights after 9pm, and go to bed at 10pm.
Make sure you keep waking up at 6 am and don’t nap/go back to sleep; brute force your body to adapt. It should work as quickly as in 72hrs.
Then i'm tired and less likely to power through interupting the interesting thing i'm doing at evening.
This is the way! You gotta stick to it on the weekends. No exceptions.
Personally, I sleep in till 9 in the weekends. Wake up a mess early Monday. Mondays suck but it's still worth it gor me.
