@andromeda5845 @roscop several years ago I had a major sleep problem so I got a referral to a sleep doctor. Thank heavens, I didn’t have to do a sleep study! We just talked and the doctor, a psychiatrist, explained sleep hygiene to me. The rules are pretty simple:
1. NO screens after 7 or 8 o’clock
2. NO reading or TV in bed. Bed is for sleep and sex only
3. Get totally ready for bed long before bedtime
4. Bedroom should be dark and cool. I use a flashlight, for safety, if I get up at night.
5. Cut down on alcohol
This worked very well for me. If I’m still awake 30-60 min after going to bed, I get up and read for a while. Use kindle on my iPad which can be turned to dark mode. The program is good but I’m not always good! Mostly, I sleep pretty well.
