  • I have a lot of them. Sleep and I are in an… enemies to lovers kind of relationship.

    There’s hate-fucking, is what I’m saying. I hate it so much and it’s all I want.

    Some of my advice might be bad advice due to my ADHD but I can’t tell what might work for you so.

    Also, I have left off a lot of stuff that I have done that is… not good. If you need harm reduction options, let me know.

    1. I wear an eye-mask. The gentle, soft, cool (not cold!) pressure is a reminder to my brain that it’s bed-time.

    2. Don’t eat too close to bed.

    3. Make sure there’s nothing uncomfortable (like a tag from the sheets) touching me.

    4. Play a TV show I find comforting but that doesn’t need my 100% attention, at a low enough volume that I can’t quite hear it unless I’m very, very, very quiet. This helps make me some moving/jittering/jiggling. (I play Futurama. Can’t get a nightmare from Futurama.)

    5. I take l-theanine. It’s supposed to make people “alert” and “calm” but my doctor recommended it to me and it’s sedating effect is so strong it significantly drops my blood pressure. (Very useful if I have to take stimulant medication.)

    6. Which leads to I take prescription medication. It doesn’t quite do it, and is hit-or-miss, hence the list.
