NP. I wish this worked for me, but b3caise of another issue I cannot do hormone therapy/replacement. I stick to a bedtime routine. Keep the room temp. cool. Don't let myself review the ups and downs of the day or plan the tasks for tomorrow. Sometimes I have some nights of insomnia. I accept those as normal and know that it's temporary.

I sleep with the TV on, it distracts me from overwhelming thoughts. I'm sure it won't work for everybody but it works great for me. I sleep 8-10 hrs every night and even when I wake up to pee I go right back to sleep after.

If I drink coffee after 11am, then my sleep will suffer. I’ve actually cut out coffee altogether and now only drink one cup of tea in the morning. More than one cup and it will affect my sleep.

I drink a lot of water late in the day. I know I'm going to wake up to pee at some point, and if it happens before 2, I can get back to sleep. If I'm up to pure at 3, that's it.

I read about split sleep, and while I don't get up to milk at midnight, I do leave out a minor task to do ifi wake up and can't and can't get back to sleep in 20 minutes

Exercise in the morning and something high intensity at midday

Have you tried exercising more? Going to bed earlier?

I use Trazadone and Ambien. I have to wrap myself up tightly in the blankets. My mind races at night.

Things have tried and worked at various times:

1. Brown noise -play when go to sleep so then when wake up and play again you are reminded this is the sound I go to sleep when hear it

2. Podcast, but for me, listen to single episode over and over- so becomes variation of brown noise

3. Water and Sun- make sure to be outside at least 30 minutes a day and I found when wasn’t drinking enough water I woke up more so for me was needed to drink more liquids than less

4. Give in to a nap when you need to- the lack of week becomes maddening
