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

I’ve woken up at 5 or 6 am every day for about 12 years at this point.
Factory life I guess. Weekends included
Honestly I have the best and healthiest sleep schedule of anyone I know
You Hear Their Call, Too, Brother?
I’m fine this year, but only because I set my alarm one hour later after clocks got manipulated due to daylight savings.
Usually I wake up too early and am groggy all summer, this year I resisted.
I believe it’s because you have to adjust to a new REM cycle.
Are you in the northern hemisphere? The sun is rising earlier and earlier.
Yes, but I’ve got blackout shades and my apartment is on the west side
Light intrusion isn’t the only factor, there’s also the temperature. It’s getting warmer earlier, so your AC is likely turning on earlier. You’re hearing the motors and wind and feeling the breeze at different times than a few weeks ago, which will also affect your sleep cycle. The birds chirping outside are active earlier, too.
All your mid-day stimuli are hitting sooner, basically.
Imagine having an AC.
Fair, my AC has been on the fritz and I’ve been waking up sweating or freezing (it’s getting fixed tomorrow) but this is different
But I ask mostly because multiple other people who live hours away have been waking up at the same times, same time frame. Two is a coincidence three is a pattern and all that
There’s tons of possible reasons for this:
Did you recently hit maybe age 35 or older?
Drinking more in the evening?
Working out less?
Stressed out in general?
Too much screen time before bed?
Thin curtains and not realizing the sun comes up earlier every day as summer approaches?
Birds?
Something you can hear outside that’s waking up, like a loud car that drives by at the same time, people talking, etc.?
Impending sense of doom overall?
Impending doom of 35 or more stressed out birds before a talking car approaches
I usually blame the birds, but the talking car deserves some shade.
Don’t take it out of the birds they’re just stressed
If you live far from the tropiques like I do, that is just the sun. The sun is walking you up for behind your curtain. You body know is day know. It has forgot you’re only sleeping since 4 hours.
The sun has been raising earlier so I have been waking up earlier. Today woke up at 6am
Maybe its due to the latestagecapitalism.exe virus has been infecting “earth” gameservers? Which would explain the missing serotonin.dll files in some player characters, which causes the “depression” debuff, and thus fucking up their sleepcycle.sys process.
Oh dear, Earth runs on Windows? That explains so much
👍
Anxiety?
I never had trouble sleeping til recently and now I wake up multiple times a night and have trouble falling back asleep. Even before when I’d get nightmares (which was often) I could go back to sleep. Those days are over. This has been my life since November and no, I’m not even American. So that’s where I’m at.
Same, never had trouble sleeping. Now I’m lying awake worrying about life, the universe and everything.
Same here, but it’s probably an eroded feeling is safety due to relationship troubles with kids.
Anxiety seems to have been the culprit for me.
I also had the same problem and went on anti-anxiety meds and am back to sleeping through the night and being able to sleep in.
It’s the only time I can get any worms
How old are you? When I hit my mid 30s, I started sleeping far less. I’m 45 now and sleeping 12-8am is completely impossible, even with sleeping pills, patches, melotonin- it’s all useless and makes NO difference.
Yes I am. Seems to happen to me every time the season changes.
No, if there were no work it’d be the opposite. I’d sleep till afternoon…
I read all the comments, they’re all wrong. It’s actually the Moon energy flow that’s moving from wax on to wax off. Or was it wax off to wax on? I forget. Anyway, you need to surround yourself with anti wax on wax off energy stones or pro wax off wax on energy absorbing stones.
Just place one above your pillow on a stand, shake it a little while lying down and you will soon be on your way to having a restful and peaceful sleep.
There was this rich ass family who build a new house in a pretty wealthy neighborhood and on a pretty steep hill. It was steep and rocky, so just the building process and the land was super expensive, but hey what are you gonna do.
The architect was some weirdo and i never liked him. He was very alternative in all the wrong ways. Despite it being a new modern house, they used natural clay for the walls and crap like that. I’m not saying clay walls and natural walls are crap per se, but they will never be “new” they always crack and you’ll always have slight problems, and the amount of money you spend more to get less is also kind of staggering.
So to hold the clay in place, they used a fiberglass net. But they also had a net that was made of algea, super turbo expensive. So one day, they finished the bedroom walls and the architect came over and he atarted asking where they used what net. The guy was a bit confused and said: they used fiberglass here here and here and algea here, like he said. The guy just absolutely lost his shit: “WHAT ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID? THE ALGEA NET GOES ON THE HEAD SIDE OF THE BED, SO THE COSMIC RAYS CAN’T PENETRATE IT” right right right, who’s supposed to be stupid here?
In my current opinion, it’s the architect. We can’t expect everyone to have the same knowledge or there wouldn’t have been a need to hire the architect. He either should’ve enlightened them beforehand or be present during the installation.
