Hey, I'm new and about to head to work and wanted to post a thread before I head out so I didn't have time to search if this has been covered or not, so sorry if it has!
It's not uncommon for me to naturally wake up after 6 or 7 hours of sleep; not ideal, but I recently quit smoking cannabis so that's expected for a while. However last night I woke up after about 3 and a half hours of sleep and thought "Ooo I'll try a WILD." long story short: I thought I laid there awake four 45 minutes, but the next time I checked the time it was already 5 in the morning and I was wide awake. Considering that cannabis inhibits REM sleep(I smoked for a little under a year before I quit) and my waking up early, I feel like my body has tons of REM rebounding to do. I just never seem to get a good solid second half of sleep when the REM cycle is at its best. I stop eating at least 4 hours before bed and don't have too much trouble falling asleep, steer clear of bright lights, etc. I am also very familiar with natural sleeping supplements, but I can't usually take anything late in the night because I don't want it to effect my work.
I'm sorry if I sound like a total n00b, but does any one have any ideas? Thanks!
