The zopiclone very good, half a tablet can sleep through the night and not drowsy the next day. For the other one, most of the time can sleep through but sometimes will still wake up earlier. Both can solve my problem very well compared to those days where I can’t sleep well a lot of times.
The first one is a sleeping pill. The second one seem good. I'm interrsted to try. Seem like I can only buy online. Where can I buy in stores?

I stop taking melatonin for a while coz no effect and I suspect my headache come from that. end up taking panadol. For cordyceps, is it the supplement or the herb you take?

Gone to bed so early at 8-9pm ? That's just 1 hour after eating. This is too short.

Then what happens after sleeping early ? You didn't manage to sleep all the way till morning ?
That's about the time. By the time I get home, I shower and eat, it's around 7pm or 7+. Eat finish by 8. Start to feel sleepy about 30 min or 1 hour later, so I just lie in bed.

I usually have few hours of deep sleep, then wake up toss and turn around, cannot sleep after that. If lucky, I sleep for 20-30 min then time to wake up.

i took melatonin, its not working (don't take regularly but also no work liao)
i tried jogging, 2.5-3k, i end up not tired also.
age is the issue.
Melatonin never work for me a while alrdy and I think have side effect for me. I go gym, find it help me to sleep better at night but can't do on weekday. i also think it's age.

sorry to say, there's no luxury of time to explore many "secret" recipes. Speed is the key. The food must be ready in 10-15 mins max while you shower and get ready.
If too tedious, you sure give up cooking sooner or latter.
I've tried steaming everything, from wagyu or normal grass fed beef, any kinds of fish and vege, they all cooked within 10-15mins. Add some seasoning of your choice, they taste good enough, not too fancy.
I explore new recipe on weekend. Weekdays, I buy takeaway. I tried cooking after work, cannot. Definately take more than 15 min to prepare, cook and wash up. Too tedious, so I just get healthier food from nearby my place

i can never exercise and then expect to have a good sleep at night.

use to be when i was teen, i play soccer all day, or go gym carry weights, go home feeling sore n aches, at night slept like a log

but now that i aged, even abit of exercise that make me sweat n rise the heart beat for more than 15 mins, at night i super awake instead of sleepy.
I was like that also when I was young. now I'm older, I think it's age.

I tabao for more than 20 years, 3 meals a day. Once I start cooking myself regularly recently, I realised how different it taste from outside food, like 10x saltier, sweeter, smelly oils.....etc
I can't 100% avoid tabao cos like many...no time after work and 20-30 mins running sessions , hence I can only reduce the portion and mix with my own cooking. E.g. buy some boon tong kee chickien for protein, then steam my own purple sweet potato and vege for carbs.

Good idea. I tried before, but if I go buy food, I might as well just buy all, no need to cook. I have pressure cooker, just dump ingredients inside for soup but still take at least 30 min. Also need prep time, so I only do on weekend. Bored for awhile also.

I tried before, help to improve health but never help sleep.
few types of magnesium
wifey is using magnesium glycinate
not the cheapest one, medium price range

a lot of fake supplements
buy from official shops

hv to consider the possibility of multiple types of deficiency

vit b take at start of the day coz it also provide mental energy
