Hi all, I’m looking for helpful advice in regards to sleep issues. I can’t remember the last time I had a full eight hours of deep sleep. I’m always in this vicious cycle of no caffeine, then just a little, then all the time.. I don’t like to rely on sleep aids, since they just leave me feeling as bad or worse than if I hadn’t gotten any sleep at all. I’ve tried melatonin, different blends and doses, but they don’t really seem to help. I’m looking for some natural alternatives. I know keeping away from screen time before bed can be helpful, but it doesn’t seem to be enough. If anyone here has had the same problem and found a natural way of addressing it with success, please share.
Thanks 🙂1 -

I wish I had helpful advice but, I haven’t found anything to help myself either. I get 3 to 4 hours a night. The weird thing is, I’ve gotten used to it and use it to my advantage. I get my workout done super early.1 -

I wish I could get used to it lol. I’ll just get mental after two weeks of being sleep deprived 😂. I end up taking a 1/3 of a sleep aid tablet just to get some relief but it doesn’t help when it comes to mental clarity or energy.
A women in a grocery store, years ago, asked if I knew where the Chinese parsley was, or cilantro as I might know it as. She said it was very helpful as a tea for sleep. Maybe I’ll try that? Lol1 -

The only things that have really helped me are valerian, and sometimes CBD oil. I try to avoid the latter because a few of the brands might as well be snake oil.
I'm naturally a night owl anyway, but I know what you mean, a week or so without sleeping properly and your brain is all 'WTF? why are you doing this to me. I quit!' and you're basically a zombie.
Have you tried avoiding screens for an hour or so before bed? No phones, computers, MyFitnessPal etc. I know it's hard, but, just read a book instead - you surely can go for an hour without looking at peoples' Facebook selfies that took 43 attempts, or reading some lame Twitter frenzy about how Kim K is getting implants or something. You'll feel better for it.0 -
So I'm back. In and out more than my bins. This time I'm determined to stick to it
Former 1000 day streak and former member of 100 pound club.
Weights gone up and down more than a naughty persons underwear.
I have goals and motivation. Also don't take life too serious.
If you want to have a laugh. Give me an add1 -
