Have any ehMacians had any sleep problems that got resolved?
For quite some time now, I haven't been able to get a descent sleep and wake up feeling rested. Mrs. ehMax has been noticing that I really toss and turn a lot and have been snoring like a broken chainsaw. I've finally got around to scheduling a doctor's appointment for a visit and possibly a referral to a sleep clinic for testing.
Has anyone gone through this process? Is the only solution to get one of those storm trooper looking masks? Has anyone used one of those, and did it help? Does anyone know of other solutions that are available to improve sleep?
I try to get a decent amount of exercise, and have shed about 25 pounds over the past 6 months, but that doesn't seem to have helped. Have tried to stay on a schedule, have tried getting up really early, so far no rest. The bed we have isn't that old and it's a good comfy mattress. I've tried white noise with a fan, and after awhile it just irritates me.
There is only one time in my adult life where I slept good. That was the week I went to Florida with my family about 5 years ago or so. The whole week I fell asleep at 11:00 PM and woke up at 6:30 feeling like a million bucks. Not sure if it was the exercise, the nice bed, the lack of stress, or combination of everything. Maybe it was the air? It was incredible how much I noticed it, when I woke up how rested I felt.
Even if I have a Saturday where I try sleeping in until 11:00 in the morning, I still wake up feeling still tired. Have had a complete physical recently where I got a clean bill of health.
Would be interested to hear of anyone else's sleep woes and if they got resolved and how.
