Super tired, worst when waking up.

How's your sleep quality though? 6 hours of quality sleep beats 8 hours of tossing and turning all night.

 

All of those things may contribute, but I agree, perhaps the first (obvious) thing is to get quality sleep. I would add that having a stable sleep schedule helps you a lot (you usually get sleepy regularly and rest better).

I used to have trouble falling asleep and waking up feeling like shit and this was a major advance.

 

Quality sleep, get a consistent sleep schedule, quit caffeine, quit eating like poopy or within a couple hours before bed, and try to not use any electronics for an hour before bed.

 

1. Ditch caffeine
2. Eat healthier, less meat, more plant-based whole foods.
3. Spend less time on devices in bedroom, associate that room with sleep, not playtime / worktime
4. Stay hydrated throughout the day, but dont drink too close to bedtime.
5. 7 hours should be enough, sometimes sleeping more than 7 can make you feel groggy.
6. Try and go for a brisk walk each day 60-90 minutes.
7. Use a gentle white noise (this helps me massively fall asleep and stay asleep)

 

Chug a bottle of cold Spring water first thing when you wake up. May not Revolutionize your life but it does help some what. I also notice that eating first thing in the morning is the worst thing you can do. Wait until late morning to eat something. Even 11-12 is fine.
Coffee/tea is ok but don't drink it first thing. Wait until a good hour hour and a half until after you've had the water.

 

yeah, my sleep is jacked up

 

That sound makes you sleepier!?!??!?!? Sounds like thr sound of a vaccum cleaner

 

See, I prefer the noise from my fan, but to each their own.

 

hey man! Thank you for making this thread, lot of great advice.
Going to bed and waking up at a consistent time is one of the most underrated advice out there regarding a good night's sleep.
I personally haven't had a consistent sleep schedule, but that aadvice totally makes sense. Hope you can try it along with walking for an hour, working out and eating healthy.

 

I prefer no sound

 

I prefer having a fan for two reasons:
1-> I snore a lot and i dont want it to be issue to my roomies
2-> it helps diminish other sounds and gives me a constant noise.

No sound is a good choice too.
