Keep at it: Same wake time daily, 9hr before at most Revise your 30min process to give your body clear msg to relax and fall asleep, -maybe add 100 deep breaths in there. No bright light or screens after 1 hr prior to bed. 400-500mg poqhs-30min before bed magnesium gluconate, citrate or threonate. IF not sufficient , begin with 3mg melatonin , can increase as needed to 15-20mg, if not good enough sleep study
