@wizzwizz4 how do you deal with lights when reading? I'm worried that the lighting will just result in me staying awake. Do you have a dim reading light, or use an e-reader?

@lizzard I have an e-reader, but I used to use an Android phone: I pulled the brightness to minimum and then reduced it further with a screen filter, and it was fine. However, I am capable of sleeping during the day, so ymmv. What keeps me awake is less the lighting, and more the concentrating. The trick is, when I start losing concentration, to put the book down instead of concentrating harder. (The book surviving being slept on / falling out of the bed with no damage is useful, too.)
