20mg of Melatonin every night and I still wake up before 5 am every day. Any non-narcotic tips on sleeping until a normal hour?

Stop melatonin supplements (impacts natural production in the long run) - no screens at least an hour before bed - drink peppermint tea or tart cherry juice before bed - magnesium glycinate supplements before bed - cold, dark room (use blackout curtains) - consistent bed time. Even on weekends - no caffeine past 2p - stop eating at least 2 hours before bed

The things that helped me in the past years; - Drinking enough water throughout the day - Separating my sleeping eco with my work eco. Let me elaborate, I work at home. But back then I always crashed out on my bed throughout the day to check socials on my phone. I read an article which said this rewires your brain that your bed and your room are not for sleeping but it is for chilling and phone activities. - Meditating before going to bed helped me a lot too. I'm not doing it now though. And Melatonin never worked for me.

For me, no coffee after 2pm and exercise/steps make the biggest difference. Reducing general stress also helps if possible

Alternate between magnesium and melatonin. Consecutive nights of either loses effect

How about setting up your sleeping environment? Proper pillows and mattress. Good humidity and room temp. Complete darkness? Noise cancelling. Turning of the alarm (or not setting the alarm at all when possible). Etc.

In addition to what everyone else said- Meditation, time to reflect, and therapy when you feel like talking a bit xtra about stuff. Time to reflect can literally look like 30 minutes lying on the floor doing nothing. Could also be done while working out if you’re in a flow state.
