Anyone randomly wake up early in the morning before work?

Anyone randomly wake up early in the morning before work? Been waking up at 6:30am despite sleeping around 2am, then can’t fall back asleep until maybe 7:45am, but I usually wake up around then to start my day around that time regardless. 
 

Anyone experience the same or have advice for getting more consistent sleep?

Happens to me pretty much every day and still haven’t found a full solution. I workout or go on a run every day but that still does nothing.

I did see a doctor and they said it may be because of anxiety—got a prescription for Hydroxyzine and it works well, though you’re not supposed to take it often. Do try taking magnesium supplements (they’re OTC) before going to bed, several people told me it worked for them. Unisom sleep tabs also work quite well, but you shouldn’t take them every day.

Hope that helps.

 

Avoid junk food and eat cleaner. Cardio and gym are your friends. Hire a gym trainer and dietician to tackle to health stuff.

You’ll get better sleep.

PS - Hydrate properly

No pain no game.
