i havent woken up feeling alert and refreshed in more than 5 years. how the fuck do you sleep. i dont get it.
I thought mitten squad was dead
Put your phone in another room and buy an alarm clock. Make sure you always have a book on the go. This has literally changed my life.
>prey eyes
it's over
I refuse to believe that anybody wakes up alert and refreshed. Alert maybe but refreshed? Impossible.
Every time I wake up I feel like death. I spend like 2 hours convincing myself to get up.
It feels like a herculean task to come back to life after my 2-12h temporary death.
After like 15 minutes from when I finally do drag myself out of bed I feel energetic and full of life.
Still every time it's difficult for me to convince myself to get up when I wake up. Hell, sometimes I can't convince myself that it's worth it so I stay in bed the whole day and wake up hungry and dehydrated the next day from that.
Damn are you me
For me I'm literally suicidal for the first 30 minutes or so after I wake up. I've never been a morning person and waking up early is genuinely distressing
I got a job where I can show up whenever specifically so I never have to get up early.
What's the job anon? I'm asking because I want to work, but I don't want to be a 9-5 suicidal wagecuck.
literally me
i think its the loneliness
its impossible to think of a reason to get up in the morning when you havent felt a woman's touch since you were out the womb
>set alarm to when you want to wake up
>alarm goes off
>immediately get out of bed
>make your bed
>go to bathroon to piss and shit
>get exercise clothes on
>do some cardio (walk, run, cycle, ...) for 30 to 60 minutes
>return home if you left to do cardio
>shower
>if you drink coffee or tea, make it after shower
>get on with the rest of your day
Getting up as soon as the alarm goes off and delay looking at your phone for as long as possible is very important. This will take 1 to 1.5 hours.
Agree about the alarm for sure. A trick for those who struggle to wake up and stay up the first time: put the alarm on the other side of the room so you have to get out of bed and walk over to it.
i will literally shut off and lay back down
beta
this. no food or drink other than water after dinner at 6, then bed by 10 and alarm at 7. no excuses. be a better man.
I just let it ring for an hour
Dont go harsh on your heart immediately after waking up anon. At the very least make sure youre fully rehydrated.
Do you not brush your teeth?

Fatty cope. Pissing and shitting should warm you up.
>alarm goes off
>immediately get out of bed
I sleep through that shit lol.
5 alarm clocks going off at 15 minute intervals?
Still sleeping through it.
get out of bed
That's the point.
I just don't.
I started taking taurine powder before bed and it helped me get better sleeps, I went from sleeping in 2 hour blocks to getting about 6-7 hours straight which was huge for me. Also try going to sleep at the same time each night, invest in blackout curtains, no caffeine after 2pm, no phone after 8:00pm, no nicotine after 8pm (if you smoke) eat your dinner before 6pm and make your room cold if possible. I do all of these and if I don't then I struggle massively.
sleep on the floor with your head facing south
No I won't elaborate
you forgot to add that this only applies for northern hemisphere chads
can I use a sleeping bag?
that's harder than a mattress so yeah probably
I get a 85 sleep score consistently with this routine:
- Get 20 mins direct sunlight within 30 mins of waking up. If you cant, buy a luminette.
- Delay coffee for 90 mins in the morning
- Cut off caffeine at 2pm MAX
- Get direct sunlight as the sun goes down.
- Cut off phone at 8pm, at the same time take 50mg Apeginin, 200mg LTheaning, 200mg Magnesium Threonate.
- Read in bed while supps kick in
- Die for the night
This is basically hubermans sleep wienertail btw. Also, if your sinuses are bad or you wake up feeling stuffy, take a reactine with supps for ez breathing.
idk, i just remember that 40 hour work week being a huge drain. now im a girlboss.
1. Eat less protein, dairy, sulphur, starches, and more raw fruit.
2. Follow a consistent sleeping schedule.
3. Stop looking at screens 30 min before bed, or at minimum get a blue light filter like f.lux.
4. Minimize electrosmog (turn off wifi and sleep in a room with no electronics, also avoid sleeping on the side of the house with your electric smart meter outside).
5. Get a grounding blanket.
6. Do neurolymphatic massages on your head and neck daily.
7. Avoid melatonin, instead get quality adrenal glandulars and circulatory herbs.
8. Use white noise to fall asleep.

Reduce caffeine by about 80%
Solved my dying-tier sleep issues
Quit caffeine
Oh good a sleep thread
I suffer from horrible night sweats, I am desperate for a solution. I wake up drenched 2-3 times a night most nights. Smoking weed makes it stop but it also drains my life force and stops me from exercising. I tried gabapentin from the doc, which worked for like a week before sweating returned. I've tried more / fewer blankets, different materials, sleeping naked, sleeping super bundled up, sleeping with/out a fan or window open, really any variable I can think of. Please help
Weighted blanket. If it's a biological problem...well go to a specialist and hope it's not a thyroid or endocrine thing. Consider magnesium before bed, and maybe sup d3 + K2 in the morning/lunch. A nice bath before bed with epsom salt helps as well
Grounding blanket? Da fuq is that
What kind of blankets do you have? You should be sleeping with cotton sheets and a down comforter. The plastic blankets most people have aren’t breathable.
youre probably snoring
just get prescription sleeping pills
it's that easy
>Feel intolerably groggy for 6-8 hours after you wake up.
>By the time you feel awake and alert it's bedtime again.
Yeah frick that shit.
i take rozeram, which is one of the most mild, it just affects melatonin uptake, and I don't feel groggy for more than 30 minutes
Nothing that mild will do a damn thing for me.
I sleep 1 in every 3 days unmedicated.
>just take some mystery israelite potion for something that you should be able to do naturally
kek I actually hope youre a shill
one morning you just wake up tired and you'll feel like that for rest of your life
same as some random pain in back
Nice reddit wisdom
I confess my reddit sins, cringe now when I read it.
Valium 15mg
Self-hypnosis. It may sound like a meme, but it has helped me fall asleep so easily since I learned how to do it.
>negative canthal tilt
>weighted blanket, top comfy
>100% dark bedroom, nip study showed even a little light can mess your sleep and some people are very sensitive to this
Cannot overstate the dark bedroom.
Oh also, no plastics in bedclothes, they don't breathe and no clothes. Always sleep naked, even loose clothing constricts here and there and wearing clothing 24/7 is not good, same for boots/socks, barefoot sometimes so you don't get those weird mutant feet and have proper splayed toes.
lel, here you'll get a box of morphine before you'll get any actual sleeping pills and they're terrified of opiates.
When you wake up, go back to sleep. If you can't, go about your day, don't take any caffeine or stimulants. As soon as you get tired, go back to sleep. You need to just shock your body with rest as bizarre as that sounds. I have to do this every few months. My sleep feels like shit, I wake up, I feel tired, and I either go right back to sleep and don't give a shit if I end up logging 13 hours of sleep that day or I go about my day and as soon as I'm like "I'm tired..." I drop everything and go right to sleep. If one time doesn't do it, a couple of these "frick it" sleep sessions will absolutely reset you and you'll feel refreshed for the first time in a while. For some reason you're then good for a bit. For me it's legitimately a couple of months before I feel drained out again.
Dealt with that for 15-20 years. Got diagnosed with Lupus about 9 months ago and prescribed hydroxychloroquine. Fatigue is 90% gone.
don't eat anything 4 hours before bedtime
>literally all u need to know
If it doesnt work take melatonin. It comes in teas or pills, but dont make it a habit.
Good night OP
Sleep in a tent on top of a mountain.
You know that the answer is to stop jerking off.
Quit caffeine moron
