If you haven’t tried it yet, I’ve listened to “nothing much happens” podcast for years and years now and it helps me fall asleep faster. If you don’t like this one in specific, there’s plenty of the same genre online for you to try. I prefer sleep specific content because the audio does not have any sudden changes or loud noises. Also screens on while sleeping decrease sleep quality, IIRC
I appreciate the recommendation, I’ll look into it thanks.
There are a few channels like that I watch, one is “History to fall asleep to” or something like that.
I just downloaded NewPipe, and on there you can turn off the screen and just have the audio playing, so that’s awesome.
It’s tricky for me, because if the show is too boring, my mind will wander and I’ll start to get anxious, thinking about things I shouldn’t. Conversely if it’s too exciting, I’ll get too into it and it’ll wake me back up lol
I know, I’m kind of a mess.
To make matters worse most sleeping medicine doesn’t work at all for me, and the only one I’ve found that does gives me dry mouth to the point it gags me.
I hope this one is just the right amount of interesting for you. I particularly like that there are recurring characters and you can keep up with, and “cameo” style apearences and references if different episodes. Easy enough to ignore if you’re not into that. My favorites are the baker and the cat Marmelade.
Best of luck sleeping!
