You need a little Serama rooster in a parrot cage. I'm up right on time. Dissolving a 10m Melatonin now. It will take an hour to work.

Melatonin gives me vivid nightmares so I drink caramel tea to get sleepy

Oh no. I've not had melatonin give me nightmares. It works well for me. When I remember to take it.

Then Melatonin may be what gives them to me. I know I have them because often I wake up slowly and remember a bit of one so I know I have lots of them. I do not want a drug for a sleep aid. I my cut down to 3 mg instead of 30mg of Melatonin and make sure no caffeinated tea after lunch meal. A peanut butter snack with nightly meds may help.

Up at 530?! No thanks

I‘m up by 5, in the summer, it sometimes is 3 am the problem is, it doesn’t matter when I go to bed, I still wake up that early that’s why I don’t like going out in the evening, I already habe so little sleep and then I KNOW I will get even less

We were talking about sleep problems almost a year ago.
K-T-Hammer started a thread, Night Owls and Insomniacs.
Nothing groundbreaking, mostly another place for me to post Memes.

I DID post this article I found that may shed light, or at least historical context on the problem. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20220107-the-lost-medieval-habit-of-biphasic-sleep

fascinating!!

I had no naps today. Now if the night time sleepy meds will just work.
