Struggling with the Wind-Down

I sleep in the same room and same bed as my partner. Right now, we're not really in a safe or comfortable space for the two of us, due to losing our housing recently. We don't have a dedicated computer space or anything, so he just plays his games on his laptop in the bed. I go to sleep long before him and he watches videos on YouTube and plays his games well into the night and sometimes overnight. He also doesn't let me go to sleep when I first tell him I'm going to sleep and will keep me up for another 1-2 hours, just ragebaiting me or trying to show me stuff from the videos or games he's doing. I'm genuinely not sure how to address this. I'm the one of the two of us who has to work and I'm so exhausted and in pain and suck all the time and I'm finding it extremely difficult to show my nervous system that I'm safe. I do the morning routine, but it's not enough on its own
