Did anybody else get really sad at bedtime as a kid?

[Mister Obvious]

That's a very interesting observation and certainly sounds plausible. I remember hating going to sleep at that age. But it was more that I could not get my mind to shut off. I would just lay there with thoughts racing through my mind for what seemed like forever.

Yeah a lot of kids throw a fit at bedtime because they want to keep playing, etc. but for me it was always something else.

Used to be, I had to ponder the entirety of life and existence before I fell asleep every night. In recent times this has eased up a little.
