Suffered with much the same thing throughout my working years, actually put a notepad and pencil next to my bed, jotted down notes (normally solutions to problems unwinding in my head at night). Next is finding a happy place, normally a memory from childhood messing around the backyard with siblings.

I found getting the thought waking me up, by jotting it down left me less anxious about overlooking it the next day. Thinking back to far reaches of memory bank sometimes seemed to lull me back.
