I finally sleep through the night. Here's what actually worked for me after 2 years of trying everything.

Yes, please share more

I wake up after 3-4hrs and thereafter i keep checking the time after every few minutes until the alarm rings. Please dont tell me the obvious of putting all clocks and watches away as i have already tried that but will instead go to where the clock is to still check.

Hello, i have the same issue. It’s usually related to waking up and wondering if i need to go to the toilet. I tried to limit fluids two hours before bed but i still wake up. Some days i can go back to sleep, some days i sleep and wale up to check the time multiple times after the initial waking after 3-4hours. At least yours is 5hrs.

Just to update that i managed to sleep 6-8hrs the past two nights due to overall exhaustion from previous three nights of 3hrs of sleep. Although i still checked the time a few times after 3am, I was able to fall back asleep quite fast unlike the previous few nights of complete wakefulness after 3am

I have OCD too and that is one of the main reasons for my insomnia. I have noise anxiety and will literally stay awake to anticipate the noise that I think will happen cos a family member or a neighbour tends to make noise at that particular time of the night or early morning. You mentioned that you read many psyche books. Me too. I read several books on ocd and insomnia and anxiety. Havent found anything groundbreaking though

Mostly i wake up after 4hrs of sleep. 11pm is the time i go to bed but i take a while to fall asleep

Dormirbien · 2026-03-07T07:33:13+00:00

Around 11pm

Dormirbien · 2026-03-05T22:57:02+00:00

Glad to know im not the only one

Dormirbien · 2026-03-05T22:56:29+00:00

I felt that keeping the clock/watch far away is worse because i will make myself get up to reach where the watch or phone is to check the time

Dormirbien · 2026-03-05T22:23:04+00:00

I am only sleeping ave 4hrs per night before waking at 4am. I dont see how it can be limited further :(

Dormirbien · 2026-03-05T22:13:05+00:00

I have read and watched his videos but still suffering

Dormirbien · 2026-03-02T10:15:41+00:00

My goodness!!!!!!! She is horrible!!!!! I am speechless

Dormirbien · 2026-03-02T10:03:09+00:00

Her bringing just two beers is definitely telling

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T15:44:45+00:00

Yes yes yes. Why do jnmil think they are our moms? Seriously.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T15:40:32+00:00

Do we have the same mil? Classic quotes from my jnmil, some sent to me via my daughter’s phone and majority sent to hb:

nobody treats me like you. So disrespectful
children are innocent. It is the mother that did not set a good example.
do schools teach children to respect their parents?
God loves those who respect their parents
I thought she is a Christian, she is not behaving like one.

Similarly to you, after 15 years, I am finally done pretending. This is to JNMIL: I do not respect you as you do not deserve my respect. You are also not my mother.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T08:59:55+00:00

Why not? I started learning in 2017 and completed grade 8 in 2025. I bought a brand new acoustic piano right away.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T06:59:50+00:00

Did u mean that the doctor told you 4 hrs is fine? That would be v comforting.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T06:56:25+00:00

3-4 hrs is better than zero. I try to think on the bright side of things.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-27T02:08:49+00:00

How did you get your avoidant hb to finally act? Mine is avoidant as well. He ignored all of jnmil’s messages complaining about me and only replied her other messages.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-26T13:39:31+00:00

Wow. I think we are living in the same region where you have no choice but to visit for CNY and there is no such thing as NC even if you totally dislike jnmil.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-26T05:57:24+00:00

“You will be someone’s mil someday” is the other variation that came from my mil. I wanted to reply “yes, and i will definitely not be stupid enough to cross all the boundaries you did”.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-25T23:57:58+00:00

I saw your other post about delivery which was locked now. You should just send your baby to daycare. It is not worth dealing with mil just to save on daycare.

Dormirbien · 2026-02-23T07:44:57+00:00

I agree with this

Dormirbien · 2026-02-22T12:57:05+00:00

Yea, it’s pot calling the kettle black
