Default Do you sleep well at night ?

Physical or mental ? I almost always sleep with a clean conscience . I screwed up a few things coaching over the years that kept me awake but overall I sleep well.

I generally don't sleep well unless I take some sort of OTC sleep aid. Melatonin helps, as does an antihistamine. Even with them, if I wake up in the middle of the night & start thinking about something, I have trouble falling back asleep. It's gotten worse as I've gotten older.

When I go to bed angry, I don't sleep well.
When I go to bed in pain, I don't sleep well.
I need a new mattress, so most nights, I don't sleep well.

I rarely sleep and even when I do I have to have a CPAP and often some sleep aids or a few shots to get to sleep.

Our new mattress made a huge difference.

Horrible. I will usually sleep about 4 hr and then wake up. Sometimes I can go back to sleep but most often not. Those times that I am able to go back to sleep result in bad dreams. It’s ****ed up. It’s weird because I will go stretches that I wake up at exactly 1 am. I mean, right on the dot.

Stranger still, I am under virtually no stress whatsoever. I’m retired, so life is good. Just can’t sleep.
