You drink it black? I've been trying to perfect my latte art atm but then I started using coffee as a pre workout and couldnt be bothered to faff around with latte's anymore

@endo:

Ask your GP to do a general check-up and blood test (like thyroid hormon). Prescription drugs that may help are Pregabalin, Amitriptyline or Mirtazapine, none of those with addiction profiles or changing your personality (but often helping and providing good, physiological sleep). Melatonin is - at least in the EU - not recommended for long-term use. Don't take benzodiazepines.

If nothing helps, ask your GP to refer you to a sleep specialist or a sleep lab.

Tried to book into the GP but they can't get me in due to be swamped with everything else. Feel like im running out of options, will try to use headspace like another user suggesed - Thanks!

@zhivago:

limit screen exposure for a few hours before trying to sleep is a great place to start.
Melatonin is pretty gentle and can work well
boring books

Just purchased some blue light blocking glasses so will see if they do anything with screen viewing before bed. The more I stare at the ceiling I realise how uncomfortable I am in bed!  I'm waiting for my new mattress from https://www.snoozelgreen.com/ which I ordered a few days ago. Also ordered an eye mask from amazon (Don't judge)

Think I'll pass on the cannabis … but appreciate the suggestions  Anyone tried those herbal tablets, Kalms or whatever they're called?

Hello all - For the last 4 months I really don't know why but I cannot sleep for the life of me! I cut out caffeine for a few weeks and didn't notice a change, I tried regular bedtimes but still no change.

Once I'm asleep I tend to stay asleep, but its the getting to sleep thats the issue. I just stay in bed for hours at a time and cannot get comfy, my mind starts racing and I end up getting frustrated at myself. Can anyone suggest anything for me to try? Any products to try or superfoods to eat, please let me know! Thanks in advance

Gotta be Hazy Jane, my first love when it comes to IPA

@Appfaff:

Solid! Thanks Paul!

I feel like my Chemex and Aeropress recipes are so dialed in, I have been scared of the French press.

I also need to get new batteries for my scale

Been a big fan of James for a while but I just can't seem to get a good coffee with a French press. Aeropress for me always gives the best coffee. Recently been trying out https://ravecoffee.co.uk/ they do a nice signature blend. What method do you use in your Aeropress, standard or inverted?

@sabergirl:

Looks good, @den1mhead. Who did the repair?

Cheers @sabergirl - The Denim Doctor in Manchester, £19.95. I had my doubts about whether he'd be able to do the repair as the damage was pretty comprehensive but he didn't seem phased. I'm happy with his work plus it's barely noticeable due to its location.

Looks beyond repair in the 1st image he's done an amazing job! Will keep Denim Doctor down as a mental note
