Sleeping

growing up, more sleep is good, but less sleep is necessary. as you turn past 30 more sleep is necessary, but people still act like they're in their twenties.

a human can survive off of nothing but twinkies for many many many many many many years. but that doesn't mean he should. sleep is no different.

>i tried going to bed at 10

our bodies know when they're supposed to fall asleep and it takes some time to fix.

>i lied there for at least an hour and a half

good. cuz you're still getting at least an hour of extra sleep doing this. what id recommend is finding an audio book or radio play or a calm TV show that you can just listen to for an hour or so before drifting off. it can help.

id also suggest maybe taking a melatonin here and there. 1/4th of one usually does the trick for me

Completely cut out caffeine. Go to /fit/ read the sticky, particularly the part about what to eat.
Very important. Bunch of carbs and/or a nutrition deficiency can keep you up at night.

monitor your sugar intake and heavily cut down if its excessive

seriously, this will help heaps although prepare to get cravings like a bitch

Consider the comfiness of your bed and if you need a new one?

Also, not sure what climate you're in, but heat helps sleep. I have an electric blanket in my bed, and if I leave it on on the lowest setting throughout the night, I still sleep like a rock for 9-10 straight.

I sleep much lighter if I'm less warm.

If you own the business why not work the later shift? Let someone else open

You might be depressed.
