Anxiety vs Insomnia

[lph]

Yup, I used to sleep very restlessly due to being thirsty or hungry, especially when upping training levels. Strange thing is I wouldn't realize why until I had been fully awake for quite a while, which made it pretty impossible to get back to sleep. I have a good habit now of drinking well with or after dinner, and at least one cup of herbal tea, peppermint atm, and snacking on a banana or something unless I'm really full, half an hour before bedtime. I may wake up to pee, but I'm half asleep and can get back to sleep afterwards.

After a couple of days of making sure that I drink more water, especially just before going to sleep, I can say that I've had 2 nights of reasonable sleep. I've still woken a few times but have been able to go back to sleep very quickly. It was the weekend though. The litmus test will be if improved sleep continues during my working week.
