I think I’ve developed insomnia. 🦉💤 Does anyone know how to fix it?

    The first two questions should be:

    1. Do you have any health issue and if so is it treated?
    2. What do you do in the evening before going to sleep?

    Hard to give any suggestion without knowing that.

      No, I don’t have any health issues. I usually study before bedtime, but I can’t seem to fall asleep before 3:00 AM

        Was it always like that? I mean, I don’t need that much sleep and never needed much. I go to bed between 22 and midnight and will wake up at 4AM every single day, no alarm needed. I will wake up even when I go to sleep much, much later. I’ve been doing that most of my adult life.

        One thing that helps me a lot as I study a lot at night, is to study under a yellowish Led lamp (and not in bed, but sitting or standing at a desk).

        I also exercise a lot. I walk, every single day. I will walk as often and for as long as I can, and will use any excuse to do so. It helps me feel much better and a lot less stressed out when I go to bed. Maybe that is something you could try? If not by walking, by doing gymnastic, or something?
