What's your stack?

Wow, thank you so much for all of this information! I can tell you are detail oriented, which I am too!
It is probably one of the things that keeps me awake! Can’t get my brain to shut off sometimes! But deeper, rested sleep is exactly what I am looking for! I can usually fall asleep, it is staying asleep that is the problem! I wake up every 1-2 hours & it is frustrating. My husband literally does not wake up, at all…until morning and I am always thinking, man what must that be like?!
I am going to give your post a more detailed read tomorrow. I need to try to start making myself go to sleep ironically enough!
But I wanted to say thank you so much for all of this! I have looked at the other peps you have mentioned & I am also hesitant to try some of those cause if they are too uppity, well I won’t sleep! I hope you get some good sleep tonight!

I'm glad if this is helpful to you! Since you don't have a problem falling asleep, but staying asleep, your lab might want to research DSIP - delta sleep inducing peptide. It helps with deeper sleep, Rem sleep, keeping you asleep. The dosing is small, in mcgs. As I said I started at 100mcg a few hours before I was hoping to go to sleep. Some do one month on and one month off, or once a week, or daily or every 3 days... I can give you more info from what I've read if it's something you decide to try. Many people do like weighted blankets a lot, and say it makes a huge difference, for me, too heavy, too hot, and I feel like I'm being suffocated.

Oh man the first time I used a weighted blanket it knocked me out almost immediately Unfortunately I run *very* hot at night even in the colder months. I hear they make cooling ones now so I may look into that.

I am determined to get a cooling one by next summer. This time of year, we keep a fan in the window and the bedroom stays in the 50s most nights. Snuggling under the heavy blanket is heavenly.

My old man feels the same as you. That is one of the reasons we each have our own covers for our half of the bed!
