I can only sleep for 2 hours. What helps Intermittent Sleep?

Hi @frankot, Welcome to Connect. Thanks for sharing what helps you. I try to exercise daily but sometimes only get it done 4 or 5 days a week for 30 to 45 minutes. I like your idea adding more physical exercise that you enjoy. I think exercise definitely helps with my sleeping and sleep apnea with the caveat that I don't do it close to bedtime but more in the morning or middle of the day.
Do you mind sharing how you found Connect? Are you trying to find some answers?

yes , looking for ideas. answers would imply i know enough to ask the questions. my curiosity is more toward common causes of short sleep. and what people try for solutions.
i have been alert at night most if my life.
i hate pharmaceuticals and do not trust them at all. i have adverse reactions to many pills. both otc and script.
intense dreams wake me often.
lucid dream techniques did reduce and cure nightmares.
i sleep best when i get hours of exercise . sleep worst during allergy seasons.
Reading makes me sleepy, church , classrooms make me sleepy. quiet dark rooms make me alert. so cannot imagine a sleep study unless i was monitored during a lecture. LOL for real.
