Anyone else have trouble sleeping the night before they are going to be traveling? My friend does.

I think that's a common problem and not restricted to ASDs.
Sadly I have trouble sleeping even when I'm not travelling the next day.

I tend to have problems sleeping a lot, but especially if I"m going to be traveling. It doesn't help since traveling in itself is so taxing and energy-consuming. I think because it's so much anxiety-inducing.

I do. I also have difficulty sleeping before my birthday or Christmas.

Yes, but not just for traveling, it's for when anything exciting is happening the next day. For a few months I had trouble sleeping when I knew there was a Powder Game update to happen the next day.

I do and not just before travelling. I have trouble sleeping before any day if something exciting, important or scary is to happen.
