Tips for sober sleep? (hexbear.net)

Trying to cut back on the booze for my health but damn I'm realizing I have a hard time getting to bed without something in my system. A few nights I've had to just say fuck it and grab a few Modelo tall boys at the gas station just to shut up my own brain long enough to get to sleep.

Thing is once I do get to sleep I sleep way better but that's after hours of laying in bed trying to let myself drift off.

I've tried weed but I'm one of those people where there's a 50/50 chance weed will actually make it worse.

White noise, melatonin, DI.fm Space dreams helps me. Not too loud focus on it and drift away.

Right now Auralnauts has a 24/7 live stream plays some pretty chill LoFi background and silliness like Wilford Bremly reminiscing about Bea Arthurs wild parties, unless someone superchats a request.

I tried listening to that space dreams channel last night and it was really nice and relaxing. Thank you for sharing!

I can't believe DI is still around. I remember listening to it using Winamp back in the day.
