  • ObamaBinLaden : Non neurodivergent method- Wake up early and go to bed early, r-slur

sleeping aids

alright so I often have the issue where I cannot sleep well. because of this problem I have tried many methods with mixed reviews. I will share a brief overview blow, but really what I wanna know is what is your best way to fall asleep at night?!?

here's my findings from a couple years of not sleeping easily:

BEST AND HEALTHY WAYS TO SLEEP--

https://media.tenor.com/513CjqCC3_sAAAAx/boring-nigel-farage.webp

  • exercise/hit over 10k steps

  • have s*x/orgasm

  • count sheep

... but of course these things don't always work alone. and when you're fasting getting a ton of exercise is one way to feel like ur jesus carrying up the cross. SO, some hacks if you did the above:

  • low dose melatonin

  • sleepy time tea

  • benadryl/zzzquil (same active ingredient). hits you like a truck but it makes you feel like shit in the morning and apparently has alzeheimers links. my grandma is already enough on my hands.

  • drunk!! :drink: I LOVE passing out after a night of casamigos. bye bitccches, high odds I wake up with pins and needles in one of my ligaments tho.

  • nyquil when u don't have a cold. and also beware hatman sometimes comes too.

  • eating thc gummies (sleep so good but always wake up with weird visual afflictions)

Nyquil RULES not only does it knock you out pretty well it tastes yummy and will give you some crazy butt dreams :marseyonacid:

In fact I slept on some nyquil last night :marseysleep: and dreamed I was locked out of an airbnb in a sketch neighborhood and a giant monstrous Bandersnatch type beast was stalking the streets and killing black people. I had a gun and felt guilty for not trying to save them but didn't want to frick with that thing :marseyteehee:

It does rule but seems like it becomes less effective the more you take it. I save it for the bigger early AM events: work meetings, doctor appointments, funerals.

Potassium can also help, potassium supplements are cucked in the US. Buy NuSalt and self-dose.

Many dietary supplement manufacturers and distributors limit the amount of potassium in their products to 99 mg (which is only about 2% of the DV) because of two concerns related to potassium-containing drugs. First, FDA has ruled that some oral drug products that contain potassium chloride and provide more than 99 mg potassium are not safe because they have been associated with small-bowel lesions [19]. Second, FDA requires some potassium salts containing more than 99 mg potassium per tablet to be labeled with a warning about the reports of small-bowel lesions [20,21]. In accordance with a ruling by Congress, FDA may not limit the amount of any nutrient, including potassium, in a dietary supplement, except for safety-related reasons [22]. However, FDA has not issued a ruling about whether dietary supplements containing more than 99 mg potassium must carry a warning label [21,23].

Some random old dude died (he was super unhealthy) iirc and they blamed it on the potassium.

Just don't add it if you're old, you have failing organs, or you're on an empty stomach. You don't need much, but 100mg is jack shit. I recommend about 500mg to 1000mg personally.

What type of insomnia do you have?

  • Can you not fall asleep and are alert/awake too long each night?

  • Do you fall asleep fine, but wake up constantly?

  • Do you fall asleep deeply, but wake up early and can't ever get back to sleep?

All of those are "don't sleep well", but addressed in different ways.

I have a set of Bose Sleepbuds II to block out noises. They're very comfortable but you're limited to the noises that Bose offered, like various tonal soundscapes, cobblestones, storms, etc. If you have an alarm on your phone or get a call, it'll alert you in-bud.

Though I was annoyed to learn the app requires an internet connection to function, even after setting up -- that was a bit of an issue during my cruise when internet access was $28/day.

I can't take any of the diphenhydramine-based sleep aids. I'm not sure why exactly but it gives me this restless feeling in my arms. Like I need to bench-press a thousand pounds or flex some muscle that doesn't exist. It's a very deep dull ache in my bicep.

Can't do THC either, I get random tests at work.

When I used to have terrible uncontrolled insomnia I would sometimes take nyquil to get to sleep but then one time the insomnia was too stronk so I lay awake the entire eight hours just tripping balls and then I never took nyquil again after that.
