How do I fix my middle of the night insomnia?

>Don't eat food / exercise before bed
>Take all the goypills (mag-glycine, zinc, ash, tryptophan, etc.)
>Don't drink coffee after 12
>Good sleep Hygiene

xanax works pretty gudd

benzos are not a solution

it's the caffeine 100%. try stopping 10am instead of noon

why would caffeine make me wake up in the middle of the night but not have issues falling asleep.

you may be a biphasic sleeper. 4 hours -> wake up and read a book or whatever for an hour -> 4 hours. kind of a pain because now you need 9 hours instead of 8 but it's a real genetic thing:

>In monophasic sleep, a person attains all of their sleep in one block of time, typically at night. Researchers hypothesize that monophasic sleep became the dominant sleep pattern during the industrial era, when artificial lighting began enabling people to stay up past sunset. Prior to that, many people across different continents and cultures followed a biphasic sleep schedule. They went to bed in the evening and slept for a few hours, waking up around midnight. Then, they would stay up for a few hours to eat, tend to their children, or add wood to the fire, before finally falling back asleep for their second sleep phase.

caffiene does have weird effects like that I noticed

>>76708684 (OP)
Rub one out before bedtime

use flux
keep bright lights off after dark
dont do cardio in the evening

the bright lights thing has been big for me
use lights with yellowish tone
and use software called flux to filter out blue lights at night when using screens

I got philips hue bulbs that get redder at night

another thing is getting sufficient sunlight during the day to stimulate your peneal gland

but bright lights at night literally tell your body to wake up
