For the last week or so, I’ve been waking up several hours earlier than normal and not being able to get back to restful sleep. I’ve never had this problem before, I’m just getting more exhausted by the day because I’m not getting to sleep much earlier

Then I find out other people are experiencing the same thing, same timeframe - around a week ago it just started for seemingly no reason

    That’s been happening to me for years. You start randomly waking up earlier and then you’re so tired you start going to bed earlier and the next thing you know you’re wide awake at 3AM most days. I tried melatonin but it doesn’t last the night and gave me weird dreams. Low dose CBD gummies (~2mg) have helped and now I’m sleeping till 5AM. It started in my late 40s so maybe it’s age related.
