I go to sleep fine. I just wake up at 2-3am. I count my blessings if I sleep to 5am.

Similar but I never sleep until 5 am, unless I am at hunting camp, then I sleep just fine. Go figure.

To those who struggle. I was until about 5 years ago. Now, I am asleep before my wife even gets to bed.

1. Caffeine; none after 8AM. Believe it or not, that was number 1 for me. That includes, chocolate, any cookies with chocolate chips, or like.

2. Nothing to eat after 6;30 or so. If I eat too late, I lay awake for hours. Heavy carbohydrate meals are really bad for sleep as well.

3. Desserts after dinner. Any measurable sugars after dinner and I am screwed.

It's funny. If my wife buys a Carrot cake, which I love, I eat it in the morning.

My sleep is now better than any time in my life.

I consume so many calories cycling, I crave the sugars as well.

Hope some of this stuff helps, There is no torture like laying awake all night.

Yes it's a bitch. Nowdays I get surprised if I sleep past 430am. I can cope with that but it's the nights where I wake at 1.30-2 that really give me trouble. Ive learned to take 45 minutes where I can during the day which helps.
