As an insomniac for 20+ years, I so resonate with this. Drives me insane when people suggest melatonin and lavender and bananas and sh*t. Oh thanks yeah, I needed you to bring this to my attention, like I haven't tried it all in those two decades. 🤔 What really works: Routine that involves sunlight and movement in the morning (or these special blue light glasses when the weather is sh*t). In the evenings put on glasses that block blue light. Regular breathwork sessions where you let out all your built up tension. This works for me like 70% whenever I can establish and hold on to the routine with these things in it. But yeah, life, right? For the times that I can't, thank Goddess for pills. 😅

I have trouble sleeping AND I'm scared of the dark AND complete silence freaks me out. So when somebody gives me a tip of "complete dark and quite" I just wanna scream at them. It's like telling someone to lose weight by eating food they're allergic to

When I really can’t sleep, like, manic episode wakefulness, I lay in bed, turn on the tv, leave my lights on, leave my glasses on, don’t change into pajamas, and say to myself; “I’m just going to relax. I’m not trying to fall asleep, but if I get tired, I can sleep if I want.” If always works. I usually have MST3K as the show I’m watching, but basically anything will do.

Most nights I can fall asleep after having wine. But sometimes I need more than that and have to take Benadryl, passion flower tea, and/or skullcap tablets. And sometimes I do all of those things so I start cleaning to maybe get out energy. If I still can't sleep, I play some mindless phone games and honestly now that's what I do first. Nothing gets me asleep faster than playing hexasort 😂

And did Taylor Tomlinson actually build her own time machine just to travel back to the year 2015 and create a channel named 'Mrs. Taylor 2024'? It's all Very, VERY suspect!!! Doesn't she care at all about the risks of a chronological paradox. Has she even heard of the 'Butterfly Effect'? It's just reckless on her part. What if she killed her own grandfather? Then where would we be. That's it - I'm calling the KZbin police dept. to report a possible timecrime! Accountability!!!

Hands down best sleep advice, get rid if the fluoride. Fluoride free toothpaste and in the water. Takes a couple of weeks, but works.
@micahnewby7964Ай бұрын
Holy 💩 really?! This is not sarcasm, this is a genuine reaction because I coincidentally not too long ago switched to fluoride-filtering my water at home for other reasons It didn't even occur to me until reading this comment that you know what, DC? It _works._ Had no idea I would, but I am sleeping better. Even when I'm not getting enough sleep because two jobs sometimes means I only have time for a nap, I genuinely haven't "dragged a**" since I don't remember when I didn't realize that was the reason (at least in part. I've also made dietary changes, but again, I wasn't having trouble sleeping) Neat
