I Have a Messed Up Sleep Schedule

I try to get a full night of sleep, but it just doesn't seem to happen. For one reason or another i just wake up at god knows what time and I have a hard time falling back to sleep. This s*** happens for 3 reasons.

1. I need some water, even when I'm not thirsty
2. I have weird dream that turn into nightmares
3. My fire dept. pager goes off and i have to go on an emergency

There's no pattern to it at all and i don't think I'm gonna fall back into a normal sleep schedule. Maybe i should just start taking sleeping pills or something. 😴

You might try a melatonin supplement. Very cheap. It's like 4 bucks for a 3-6 month supply. I like the chewables. Melatonin is the natural chemical your brain releases at the end of your circadian rhythm and when nighttime comes. Better than a sleeping pill.

Won't give you a hangover, either. Unless you take too much.
