I hate how stories make going to sleep sound so easy!

I hate how authors in most stories make it look like falling asleep is easy. It is not easy, as I know far too well! I only fall directly asleep when I am super tired, not every night! Usually it takes me at the least a half an hour of resting on my bed before I fall asleep! I wish one author would make a character have sleep issues, then maybe it would make them easier to believe. I mean, who’s going to believe that the character does not have any sleep issues for the whole story or novel? I sure know I don’t!

I know I am probably ranting at something that is too well established to change, but if I can convince at least one author to change this tiny bit, I will be happy with my tiny success.
