Can't sleep

[miajane]

hi everyone!

my insomnia is awful and when i do sleep the quality is awful. i always wake up at 2-3am then again at 5 so i can't savor the extra hour before i have to wake up. it's so frustrating to walk around the following day like a zombie! i then feel better towards night time ...... help!

There's another thread here that's suggesting CBD oil for sleep viewtopic.php?f=132&t=634

I have the same problem and will be buying some for myself.

See a doctor for starters. You could be deficient in something or have other underlying issues.

See if blue light from screens could be the source of your sleep issues. Stop using your screen before bed and turn on the blue light filter if you absolutely must check your phone before bed.

You can buy blue light blocking screen protectors ... like this one but for your device

Do you live near a busy road? My friend does and has to wear earplugs to drown out the beeping and speedster sounds.

Take a good quality multi vitamin such as https://www.centrum.net.au/products.

I sometimes rely on tv to fall asleep. It takes my mind off things. Praise the timer function!

thank y'all for answering me... I should have responded earlier. Sent a bunch of thanks for your lovely answers. xxx

no not at all - I don't live near passing cars and trucks or any other noisy facility I think it's just my sleep is a mess. I did see a doctor who suggested meditation and breathign exercises, I think they're helping to a degree. He thinks it could be more a relaxation thing, so I have to try that first and come back if it doesn;t help... then melatonin is the next step

Bakethiscake, yep i've tried the no phone before bed and I wont lie, it made a smallish difference but not enough to me,. I felt more peaceful than anything else
