    For anyone struggling with this I have two things that might help

    In the moment, you need to get out of bed. Doesn’t matter with you do. You’ll feel tired again after a while and then you can go back to bed. You don’t want your brain associating your bed with being awake

    More systemically though. You might not be getting enough exercise. Especially if you work at a desk, or are a student. I like going on long walks, but just find something that works for you. The key here is to experiment

    that’s why I set my alarm for when I want to sleep

    and put it on silent so I can sleep

      Like right now. Now.

      Man who run in front of bus gets tired while man who runs behind bus is exhausted.

      I need some sleep.

    Those 8 minutes are positively glorious

    (. . .until I wake up feeling too well-rested and realize I slept through my alarms 🙃)

    My new thing is to fall asleep around 10-11 pm, then wake up around midnight and not be able to go back to sleep until 2-3 am. That or wake up for like 10-15 minutes every hour or two all night long.

    I sometimes think my diet has more play on the problem than sleep times.

      I also had this problem onest, but I solved it, just drink much water one hour before you go sleeping. I drink nothing, and go to the bathroom, right before I want to sleep, I drink only a little, little bit and try to sleep.

      It works, Trust me.

      Yea, and than I am waking 20 minutes before my alarm rings up. :)

        Every time I wake up in the middle of the night I drink like .75L of water again.
