well, I would recommend getting some time off of the screen, especially about an hour before when sans says you should go to sleep, and maybe take some melatonin or some lavender tea if you can find it, they often lead to better sleep. If you need to, sleep during the day, or whenever you want when you have time, and you should try to aim for 7-9 hours a night/day/wheneverthehellyouwanttosleep. I would ask a doctor or someone about medicines that could help you sleep also, but something that actually works for me (and I was like, sooo surprised when it did) was making myself comfortable, and inhaling for four, holding for four, and exhaling for six. I credit pretty much all of my info to a friend of mine, her mother is a nurse (albeit a labor nurse or something like that, but still) and she l o v e s the medical stuff, so I asked lol. I'm actually pretty stupid irl, but that doesn't mean my friends are too 0w-
Kansas, USA. woo freaking hoo. Kansas with the flat hills, and I was thinking about when I lived on the coast in Oregon, me and my best friend would play with the snails all the time, and I noticed for the first time that I've been living here (about to be 4 years) that there's no snails. I miss my snails :E
Well, I would try staying up for longer. Again, the perfect hours to aim for are 7-9, and that doesn't mean 8 specifically, just... somewhere in that time period.
Too much sleep on a regular basis can increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and death according to several studies done over the years. Too much is defined as greater than nine hours. The most common cause is not getting enough sleep the night before, or cumulatively during the week. This is followed by sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, idiopathic hypersomnolence, as well as depression. Get enough sleep, seven to nine hours a night. Do not oversleep on weekends this throws your circadian rhythms off and makes falling asleep even more difficult when the work week comes along. Expose yourself to bright sunlight upon awakening. Consider leaving the drapes or blinds open at night. That morning sunlight will help you to wake up. Consider getting a dawn sunlight emitting alarm clock. Many of my patients are using them. You can set the dawn light to start filling your room with light 15 to 30 minutes before the alarm goes off. Avoid excessive naps especially after 4 PM. These may make it more difficult to fall asleep and result in oversleeping. The same goes for excessive caffeine and blue light exposure close to bedtime. To prevent this from happening, you should select your optimal number of sleep hours to function at your best. Then, determine your WAKE TIME, likely based on your work schedule or family demands. GET UP at the SAME TIME EVERY DAY, including weekends. Put your alarm clock across the room. When it rings, GET UP. NO snooze button. Go to bed at the SAME TIME EVERY NIGHT, within about 1/2 hour range. COMMIT to this for at least 2 weeks, with a goal of 4, then reevaluate your sleep and wake times.
Jesus. I'd thought i'd never type that much on here
