Is it normal to not want to sleep?

Depends.It depends

Sometimes not wanting to go to bed is normal, especially when you’re stressed, busy, or enjoying your free time. If you consistently feel you don’t need sleep and are getting by on very little, that’s worth paying attention to.

It’s common to put off bedtime because you want more time to yourself, feel worried about tomorrow, or get caught up in something enjoyable. That’s different from wanting to sleep but being unable to, and it doesn’t automatically mean anything is wrong.

If you’re sleeping much less than usual but still feel unusually energized, have racing thoughts, or find it’s disrupting your life, consider checking in with a healthcare professional.
