Not yell into a microphone for 4 hours just before I want to go to sleep.

Legit though, days I used to cast until 11am meant no sleep till 3. You are in a tough spot unless you can entirely change schedule.

How can I change my schedule when I have such loyal viewers (it's you you're the viewer)

Magnesium powder an hour or two before bed, in a hot drink, helped, calms you down, but doesn't help with existential dread I'm afraid

pixelsmixel.bsky.social•138 days ago

This is THE PROBLEM

Have you tried just not? /s

I like to listen to speedruns while I'm going to bed, since it's background noise I'm interested in but won't pull my attention enough to keep me awake. Mind you I sleep horribly, and have chronic insomnia lmao.

I only get 6 hours of sleep and it’s hard to fall asleep, but lately I read until my eyes are so heavy that I pass out. I have a holder for my kindle so I don’t drop it on my face at that point lol. I’ve also fallen asleep to music or a documentary type YouTube video so my brain gets quiet

Not an informed medical opinion but kava seems to help me sleep

Your mileage may vary

steven has sleep issues and it’s basically no caffeine after 2, a sleep mask with built in speakers, and copious amounts of medicinal flower

Clonidine (adhd, helps me relax), melatonin and 3 heat packs covering my face every single night (for my tmj but also helps me relax)!

pixelsmixel.bsky.social•138 days ago

Heat packs help me in the winter but it's getting WARM

paperlouise.bsky.social•138 days ago

True! I can’t go to sleep without them for pain management 😭

Annie mentioned magnesium which I also agree with!

I’ve seen people make some magnesium cherry kinda drink which people swear by 👀

no, but the only things that can potentially make it better is to make sure the room is cold, i've got rain sounds/white noise playing (at a low volume generally), and avoiding caffeine or drinking too much liquid before bed

and if you take melatonin: reduce your dosage

Recently got a Pixel 3 watch and it has told me I am a very light sleeper. My guess would be from not being active enough and using my phone before bed, but it's interesting to see the statistics of how I'm sleeping and what is affecting it

I totally stopped drinking caffeine a few years back and my sleep quality improved a *ton*. Not sure that'll work so well for anyone else, but now I don't get tired in the afternoon from the caffeine crash and I can actually sleep through the night properly 🤷‍♂️

best sleep i usually have is after lifting weights, but my body has issues so its not something i can do consistently, other than that falling asleep can sucks so to keep my mind from racing i recount plot points from games im playing or stuff im reading.

pixelsmixel.bsky.social•138 days ago

I should actually exercise more hey

snowed.bsky.social•138 days ago

Only if you have the capacity for it, because unfortunately wellness people are right, it helps a bunch of things like sleep and mood, think about your goals and chat to a pro get some tips and take things slow.
