Health Issues Sleep problems

Oh boy...this has been happening more nights than not the last two weeks. Interestingly enough, I had oatmeal for dinner last night, lol. 🤦‍♀️

I should be able to fall back to sleep soon and get another hour or two in. This seems to be the pattern.
 
Definitely in a bad cycle right now, going on about a week now with having wakeful periods in the middle of the night, between 2-3 hours. My body is feeling the strain now, too. :sigh:

I'm involved in an experiment.

After learning about, what is it called - Diurnal sleep patterns - I've ditched almost every rule I made about sleeping .
Instead of going to bed at the same time every night, I now go to bed as soon as I feel sleepy. And if I find myself awake for longer than 30 minutes in the middle of the night, I get out of bed. Depending on things I might go back to bed later or try and take a nap later.
the first week of my experiment, according to Apple Health I was getting less sleep each night. But now I think I'm getting more.
