and my work weeks are stressful
I am always awake before 9am
and from march to august, I pretty much don't get any sleep at all
because of those damnable birds
so I only really get half a year of decent quality "time" to sleep
and from a day/night cycle and sound perspective, there are only a couple months in fall, and february, when things seem ideal for me to be able to sleep
its a really ugly, complicated, nasty mess
for a while I had no hope of ever figuring it out
but I've spent a lot of time researching along with my mother (who has similar problems)
we;ve found a lot out about brain chemistry needs and what, chemically, induces and maintains sleep cycle and all that
I just spent $140 on some of my supplements, which includes L-Tryptophan, L-Methionine, Melatonin, Seraphos, Cortisol Manager, Inositol, TMG, Magnesium and Zinc, and a few other things like Fish/Flax oil
