I'm starting to wonder if investing in some sort of sleep aid will be worth it. At least on the random nights I can't seem to stay asleep for longer than 40-60 minutes at a time.

Because they seem to be happening more frequently and I'm not sure I can blame loud traffic for last night.

Maybe I can? I dunno, I was too tired to think as I tried to sleep again

/Drops it due to lack of energy

You could try melatonin? It's otc and fairly mild.

I've also heard good things about sleepytime tea.

The problem with tea is I don't want to get up and brew/drink it at 2am.

As it's not falling asleep it staying asleep

You could try ear plugs to test whether it's really the noise or something else/just sleep rhythm that's waking you

Hm, good point. I will have to do some searching around as most earplugs bug me
