I’m always fatigued and struggle with migraines. Any suggestions from people that have improved their nightly deep sleep?
Note: I have IBS and the long gaps awake are normally…. Well you can figure it out.

Giving up the booze. It has made a huge difference
There it is. As I’ve gotten older, even 2 beers will fuck up my sleep schedule, which then spirals into sometimes weeks of 5-6 hours of sleep, which turns into required naps, which makes it worse.
I still occasionally drink, but I have to limit it or start drinking at like noon, which probably also isn’t a healthy habit.
While I don’t have any data on this, just thinking back on my own experience from youth to today as a 41 year old man… I don’t think adults handle recovery from alcohol worse than 21 year olds… I think we are just more aware of the consequences of the alcohol and weigh the value of the alcohol lower.
When I was in my 20s, I used to occasionally drink to the point of having a hangover or even puking… fairly regularly I’d have a few drinks in the evening.
My sleep quality was terrible back then, but I didn’t know why or that some people don’t live life that way… in my 40s, with sleep trackers etc I can see exactly what alcohol does and have experienced life with several consecutive months of no alcohol.
I'm working on this. I've had one drink in the last week and I'm hoping to see some improvement soon.
