Any recommendations on how to go to sleep at a normal time? My commute used to be almost 2 hours each way so I was up at 5:50am pre covid. Now that we are WFH, I don't have to be at my first meeting until like 8:30 everyday which means I wake up at 8:15😩I am not a morning person at all. During the week I sleep anywhere from 12-1 but def never earlier and a lot of the times even later than 1.I want to just be able to go to sleep early and wake up early instead of rolling out of bed into a meeting

Also, yes I take Ollies (Melatonin) and smoke weed. It doesn't really help unless it's close to bedtime. I can't just take Ollies at 10 and go to bed at 10:30. My brain won't allow it 😩

Wow this is exactly me too! I tried working out couple hours before bed but that only made me more alert. I’ve been staying up late even when I’m super exhausted physically/mentally throughout the day. It’s horrible. 😭

Me also. Following

The melatonin might actually be hurting you. It’s best used as a sleep phase shifter rather than a sleep inducer.

Take a small amount, like 0.5mg to 1mg around 730pm everyday. Need to be consistent about it though

I’ll admit I have no problems going to sleep but I found a night time routine really helped me get my schedule on track. At 8:30 every night I wash my face, brush my teeth, etc and then I turn off all of the lights and read (on a tablet on minimum brightness) until about 10 when I’m already falling asleep!

I also use a noise machine app! Nothing like the sounds of waves to help you relax and fall asleep
