Worry is what gets me, ...

 

To curb the worry I have tried to  give up the things that trigger me negatively emotionally.

The (expletive deleted)ety(expletive deleted)ery of TACO,  Stephen Miller and their lightweight crew has my whole German family bewitched. We're all here-we-go-yet-again.

Miller= Goebbels and TACO is ....phhhh

 

Like you, I've had to switch it off. The last 48 hours have been relative bliss. Put your strategy together with @Pocster's and we're getting somewhere I think.

 

Thanks @Iceverge

Why sleep quality is so important – and so difficult to measure

 

What nine sleep researchers do to get their best night’s rest

 

 

@SteamyTea's helpful post, earlier in this thread is useful because it's brief and authoritative. By chance I also subscribe to The New Scientist, so I had a look at the link above and summarise it here (without using AI)   - mainly because its so focused and easy to follow.

• Plan your sleep times
• Lighting is important : dimmer in the evenings, lighter early in the day
• Bedrooms cooler than living rooms (much discussion of that on BH)
• Avoid stress before bed (triggers are verboten)
• Bed is for sleeping, its not for checking BH posts
• Its OK to be a bit insomniac occasionally 

Thanks @SteamyTea
