So, I have issues sleeping in particular staying asleep once I go. Nico doesn't help as he always wants me to be up watching him eat a snack and thinks he is entitled to eat pre dawn. The days he sleeps in are very nice. Anyway, although I don't feel tired in the morning I am getting nowhere near 7 hours or more of sleep, I don't think I require more than 6 but most days I don't even get that. So, I tried the mediatiation app. I did fall asleep at some point after I used it. I don't think it is a panacea but it will probably help. Have you ever used an app for sleep?

Yes, striving for the most you can get is important to do.

Even a couple of large glasses of whisky doesn't help me sleep
Not did sleeping pills
Or going for a walk before bedtime

@Ineeddentures I take OTC supplements they aren't enough to keep me asleep all night though. The older you get the harder it is to sleep.

Try a weighted blanket I have one. I will use it tonight. They are sometimes helpful.

I never get too much sleep unless I have sedated myself, or I am sick or some such thing.

You don't look at it though, you just listen.

@snowy22315 - It's not different, I need total darkness and silence if I want to sleep.

I don't have trouble falling asleep. It is staying asleep that is the problem.

Deep sleep is important to keep your brain healthy. Most people don't get enough in this day and age.
