I wear an Apple Watch to bed to track sleep and it consistently pins my deep sleep at about 12%. Normal range is about 13-23%.

fortunately, a friendly redditor came up with a simple checklist for a good night of sleep!

• blackout window film

• blackout curtains

• electrical tape covering all of the electrical lights in the room

• sleeping mask

• don’t touch my phone

• go for a walk to relax myself

• relax for 2 hours with a book

• take supplements (magnesium glycinate, vitamin c, zzzquil)

• keep a notepad to write down any running thoughts

• Tell myself “it will all be there when you wake up”

• Being treated for adhd & anxiety

• Seeing a psychiatrist

• Working with a therapist

I try to look directly into the sun when I wake up and take the dog out (apparently this is linked to our circadian rhythm somehow? Idk but I do it)
