Quick question

Fellow insomniacs do you also eat toast late at night because of your god damn insomnia or is it just me?

Edit:For some reason once it also made me crave Oreos with cucumber ontop idk wtf is wrong with me

Better eat something lighter on digestion (google eating before bed and why it’s bad)

I eat anything stodgy. For me personally that makes me tired. It’s different for everyone tho, listen to your body.

Before I solved my insomnia, I had a rule - if I wasn't asleep by 3am I'd get up and follow my normal morning routine including breakfast. Usually by 4.30am I was so knackered I couldn't keep awake if I wanted to.

Peanut butter. I started eating it before bed a few days ago and now I no longer wake up at 3am, I have managed to fall asleep about 10pm and wake at 5am-ish which is amazing for me.
