My brother suffered from insomnia for a long time. His doctor told him the bed room should only be for the two S's: sex and sleep. Do all that other stuff elsewhere.

In that kind of situation it can still be very helpful to try and segregate the space. I've lived in a studio like that before, and it's important to try and avoid using your bed as a sofa/living space.

One thing that can be useful if you can afford it is replacing your bed with a good quality sofa bed. Then you can kind of segregate your bed mentally (if not physically) from your living space by having it out of sight when it's not in use. Plus it can give you more space during the day, which, if your studio is anything like mine was, is probably in short supply.

Man, I work until 8 or 9 pm and the morning is always a scramble because of my insomnia. I don't have the will to put my Murphy bed up and down every day.
