So I used to have some pretty serious sleep problems myself. I am now on medication. I am bipolar, and taking seroquel has quite literally changed my life for the better.
That being said there were some things I could do to improve my sleep.
Placing my phone in a different room before bed really helped me.
Having a routine before bed.
Things like that can help.
But to be Frank, medication was the only real solution.
Hilariously enough, your comment caused notification on my phone that woke me up.
My sleep problems are from pain. My shoulder was injured. Basically, every tendon got a little torn up and it takes a loooooong time for them to heal.
If I take a powerful thc/cbd gummy I can sleep through the night, but i don't want to get super high every night. Eventually my tendons will heal, but until then I'm gonna have a rough time sleeping.

Went to bed at 11 last night. Fell asleep around 2:30. Woke up hard at 5. It's been like this for months, I'm not sure what day it is anymore.

Ah come on… You got like 5 hours before the sun is up. You could stay up for like an hour or two more before sleeping. Maybe go into work at 10?
