I have a somewhat cleared conscious. I exercise also every day. I try to eat decent. I also do TRT. I sleep great for 7-8 hrs a night. Wake up fresh with energy. Never really have a "2 o'clock" crash either.

I usually sleep pretty well. I’ll sometimes wake up around 3:00 or 4:00 though. What’s frustrating is waking up and not being able to fall back asleep until 10 minutes before my alarm goes off.

I struggled with insomnia from my teens through my mid 30's. I'm not sure what did it, but suddenly one day I could fall asleep within 10 minutes, and I've never had insomnia since then. I wish I knew the secret. I half jokingly say having kids fixed it for me. I think there is some truth to that.

A few years went by, and I found myself sleeping all night, but still dog tired all day. My sleep tracker was showing lots of O2 spikes downwards and was recording a decent bit of snoring. Had a sleep study done that came back with moderate sleep apnea. I'm a skinny little guy, and I always assumed only fat people had apnea. They gave me an APAP, and after getting used to it, I sleep like a rock and can go all day no problem. Before having it, my O2 would be in the low 80's. It now never drops below the low 90's.

I only take it if i havent fallen asleep naturally over an hour. I take it about 2-3 times a week.I found that it started working the first time I took it. In fact, I remember it being too strong the first few times until my body got used to it. But I've been Rx the same 50 mg for 3 years. Never had to increase dose

Jackasses.
For me, the prevailing thought that not drinking improves your sleep is BS. All it does is let's my mind continue to work so if anything, I sleep alot less when I don't drink.

#metoo Rouge.

Seems the only nights I sleep well and can stay asleep for more than 4 hours are when I have to wake up and be on the road for 6am.

I’m the exact opposite. If I either don’t drink or only have one drink, I’ll sleep just fine. If I have two drinks though I can’t sleep worth a shite.

After doing a sleep study and not finding any issues with that, my doctor prescribed me with Ambien.

Do you exercise? When I skip on it I have the same problem. If I wear myself out physically then dealing with my mind continuing to work isn't a problem.

My wife’s cousin was prescribed Ambien. One night his wife found him looking into the barrel of a .410 shotgun saying he needed to clean it. He then shot a hole in the wall. He stopped taking it after that.

Your prostate is probably the size of a grapefruit.

I'm not a doctor, but *lubes finger* I'll take a look if you want.

I've heard stories about people getting their keys and going for a drive.

Sleep is supposed to be a natural pattern. When we screw it up there's always a reason. Overweight, alcohol, stress, technology, lack of exercise, sugar etc. It's not hard to fix if you're willing to make lifestyle changes.

You think farmers 100 years ago had problems sleeping at night?

I usually get about 6 hours of heavy sleep. I am careful about the caffeine.. None after 5PM. I am a zombie when I wake up for the first half hour. I was taking Melatonin but ran out and haven't gotten anymore.. I might start that up. I just ignore the shiny happy people anyway.
