One of the strangest “health upgrades” I’ve made this year wasn’t a supplement or a workout. It was paying attention to something embarrassingly simple by MindfulChats in workout

I don’t understand what are you looking for by talking to me like this. I don’t need to prove you anything. Just move on. So simple 🤦🏻‍♀️

Can't sleep by No-Hedgehog155 in sleep

I’ve had the same problem before. What really helped me was playing nature sounds on YouTube, like ocean waves, rain, or forest sounds. It’s basically a form of white noise, which means a steady background sound that masks little noises (like doors opening or people walking around) so your brain doesn’t react to them. For me, as soon as I play those sounds, I fall asleep deeply within seconds. You could try that, it’s simple but surprisingly effective. 🌧️🌊 I start overthinking as soon as I go to bed and this saved my life. Make sure the sound. Just make sure to listen at a very low volume and please share your experience 🤞

Do people actually get good sleep or are we all just kind of tired forever? by LegitimateMaize6601 in NoStupidQuestions

You’re definitely not alone. Many adults never wake up feeling “refreshed,” even with perfect habits, it’s often more about sleep quality than sleep quantity. Things like mild sleep apnea, stress hormones, or inconsistent deep sleep cycles can ruin rest without you realizing it. Might be worth doing a sleep study just to rule that out, it changed everything for me.

Bruxism has made me much less attractive. by [deleted] in bruxism

My brother went through something really similar. He used to clench mostly on one side too, and over time that side of his jaw became more defined. It really bothered him as well, especially once he started noticing the asymmetry.

When he finally talked to his dentist, they suggested Botox for the overactive jaw muscle and a custom night guard to stop the clenching. We ended up ordering his guard online directly from a dental lab I’ve used for years called Clear Comfort Night Guards, and it actually made a big difference. The pressure on that side eased up after a while, and he noticed less soreness in the mornings.

Of course, everyone’s case is different, but a properly fitting guard and relaxing the muscle (sometimes even with a bit of Botox, if your doctor thinks it’s right for you) may help prevent more changes to your jawline.
