• I tried fish oil for a couple of weeks, felt absolutely nothing, and quit
• I’ve had a couple of rough sessions in a row and I’m starting to believe none of this is working
• I’ve already cut the caffeine, dimmed the lights, bought the blackout curtains and the cooling mattress
• I felt totally fine during the session so I went hard, and then two days later I could barely walk down stairs
• I bought the blue-light glasses everyone swears by and changed nothing else, and my sleep is exactly as bad
