I fall asleep just fine, but I wake up halfway through the night. I’ve tried just about everything and I look forward to other people’s ideas.
I’ve tried these things:
Stop eating earlier in the evening
Finish my water by 6:30 pm
Take magnesium glycinate
Take “sleep 3”
Take Benadryl
Read a lightweight book before bed.
Earplugs/eye mask/mouth tape
Dark, cool room
Hormone replacement
In the night, though, when sleep won’t come, I pray and recite scripture (usually the same one over and over). Also, it helps to get up and go to a different room, get water or tea, read for a while. This helps “reset my sleep.”
