Does anyone else deal with these issues? Were you able to fix your sleep?
2. If you can find the time, work out
3. Most people need between 7 and 9 hours of sleep. While it's also recommended to atleast get 1 block of 5 hours during sleeping.
4. Water, get an healthy amount of water in a day (though don't start chugging like a mad men, I said an healthy amount)
5. Having an balanced diet that is maintainable.
6. Having a cold shower in the morning wakes me up, so does taking a dump
7. Drop sweet drinks they're sugared water and hold more calories then you should drink
I'm not an doctor so take everything I say with an pinch of salt
Things that help me when I'm feeling tired or just struggling with keeping a normal sleeping pattern: 1. try to cut coffee for a month. You'd be surprised how much it affects your sleep/eating habits. Or atleast it does for me. 2. If you can find the time, work out 3. Most people need between 7 and 9 hours of sleep.

Might also be worth to check if it's not due to too much stress.
2. Avoid blue screens 1 or 2 hours before sleep. I used to read my books on a Kindle Fire. I started reading paper books at night.
3. Exercise. The best time for exercising is when you have the time.
These three things should account for a significant improvement.

Also don't forget that alcohol can make sleep lower quality as well.
Working out regularly also helps, as well as avoiding screens for 1 hours before bed.
At the beginning it felt hard, but I kept it, thinking that I’d get used to it. And I actually got used to it. Except that my sleep quality was deteriorating slowly without me noticing.
The pillow lead to a “hidden” neck pain that I was feeling all the time. During the last previous months my sleep was horrible, I’d randomly wake up a lot of times during the night.
Two weeks ago I thought about ditching the pillow. The results were magical : I’ve never felt having a better sleep during the past year, and my neck pain started disappearing.
I’m still surprised how a whole year has passed before I suspected that the pillow might be the cause.
I had that problem. Even 9 hours wouldn't rest me, as I wasn't getting quality sleep. Went to an ENT, who scheduled a sleep study. I have sleep apnea. Got a CPAP (on my third now, 14 years later). Since then, I'm fully charged with 6.5 hours of sleep. Consider a sleep study.

I actually have some sleeping suplements like tryptophan and melatonin in my shopping cart ready to buy them.
