Stanford ME/CFS Initiative: PEM Avoidance Toolkit

Though I wouldn't say all tips have no value.

My family converted our garage into a room for me.
I found by lying on the couch in that room during the day rather than lying on my bed I did tend to get to sleep quicker.

 

My sleep specialist friend is big on practicing falling asleep to get better at it. He says to pick a day when you are really sleepy and practice falling asleep. The more you practice, the easier it is to fall asleep when you need to, he says.
