I sleep like poo poo most of the time. For a long time (felt like a year at least) I was waking up between 2:00 and 3:00 am every loving night and I would toss and turn until after 4:00. A doctor at one point recommended using OTC sleeping medicine for a couple weeks to train my brain to get through the night but it didn't work so well and I didn't want to become dependent on them. I used melatonin for a month and stopped recently after discovering I shouldn't be taking it for extended periods since it can gently caress up my body's natural production. When I wake up in the middle of the night my brain is usually racing about dumb work stuff so I attribute it to anxiety. But usually the poo poo I think about it so meaningless, which makes it all that more frustrating. Knock on wood, but in recent weeks I've been sleeping through the night. I naturally wake up between 5:00 and 6:00 am but I'm a morning person so it doesn't bother me. I cut out alcohol for the month of December, and I suspect some of my lovely sleep was due to me drinking beer multiple times per week. I've learned a lot about myself during my sober month, and I plan to cut down my drinking significantly. I smoke weed and I would love to rely on that to sleep (it really helps me fall asleep) but I have self-control issues and I'll smoke all day, every day when it's in my house so I force myself to take two week breaks every three weeks when I run out of my stock. If I could get to a point where I only smoke a small amount in the evening I think I would be okay maintaining like that. me your dad fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Dec 30, 2020 |
