For the last week or so, I’ve been waking up several hours earlier than normal and not being able to get back to restful sleep. I’ve never had this problem before, I’m just getting more exhausted by the day because I’m not getting to sleep much earlier
Then I find out other people are experiencing the same thing, same timeframe - around a week ago it just started for seemingly no reason
There’s tons of possible reasons for this:
Did you recently hit maybe age 35 or older?
Drinking more in the evening?
Working out less?
Stressed out in general?
Too much screen time before bed?
Thin curtains and not realizing the sun comes up earlier every day as summer approaches?
Birds?
Something you can hear outside that’s waking up, like a loud car that drives by at the same time, people talking, etc.?
Impending sense of doom overall?
Impending doom of 35 or more stressed out birds before a talking car approaches
I usually blame the birds, but the talking car deserves some shade.
Don’t take it out of the birds they’re just stressed
