I went on my own quest for a better night sleep after 11 years with a J-Pouch. Like you, I consider it okay to get up in the middle of the night as long as I can get back to sleep easily. That is a win in my book. Recently, I have slept all the way through the night several times and I have increased my capacity to fall back asleep easily. I am chewing a 25 mg CBD gummy about an hour or so before bedtime and I also do about 1-2 teaspoons of psyllium husks in about a third of a glass of water to try to thicken things up. It seems to be working, but who knows---I may just be in a good phase. I am going to keep trying it, however, because I am enjoying the rest!
Thank you! I also am glad your sleep has improved! I’d like to try the psyllium husks, maybe later… I’ll start probiotics soon and these usually thicken things up a lot for me, so I’ll see!
Do you eat at a specific time with a specific diet to achieve it? I honestly hate having limitations, but I better ask everything at this point haha
