All my life I have had problems with insomnia at bedtime, and difficulty waking up in the morning. I have been to doctors, used medications and supplements, and built some elaborate alarm clock systems. Nothing works consistently. Getting out of bed is a battle most days. I know about and follow good 'sleep hygiene' but that doesn't help much.
Besides the difficulty getting to school and work on time, you can imagine what that does to my ability to be in a duck blind or on top of a mountain before dawn. I have been late for, and even missed, more morning hunts than I want to think about.
I'm headed to elk camp in the morning, and have been thinking about how to better deal with my sleep problems so as to not miss out on the best hunting times. Do any of you deal with this sort of thing and have suggestions?
Thanks.
