i dont sleep well. i have serious sleeping issues
sometimes anxiety keeps me up
sometimes i want to make music at night

seriously i dont know but for the last 15 years i have been struggling with normal sleeping patterns

 

A broad-based study by Medizin Transparent reached a different conclusion. The authors reached the almost devastating conclusion that it makes no difference whether the blue light component is filtered out in the devices or not.

And then there's the issue of melatonin levels. Daylight or sunlight is a prime example of how melatonin production is inhibited by blue light – the same effect of blue and white LED light has been demonstrated in laboratory studies.
At the same time, only two of the studies measured melatonin levels. This was indeed lower when participants wore blue-filter glasses while using screen devices in the evening. At the same time, however, there are also studies in which screen lighting had no effect on melatonin levels.

The effect of blue screen light on melatonin production is therefore not certain. This raises the question of whether the amount of blue light from tablets, smartphones, etc. is even sufficient to sufficiently disrupt the body's own melatonin production.

need no study for that .same for art sweeteners .go test it for yourself.still there are maybe a thousand variables interacting .
man just think bout day and night.think bout vit D (its a hormone) pruduction triggers,think bout blue light vs red light and plants ,bla bla

studys are never neutral .studys must be paid for.
in fifty years first i believe the curve of all that studys ,theoritical .

Pills to wake up, pills to sleep, blue pills, red pills; pills for everyone and to every need in store.

 

I barely sleep and I fucking hate insomnia, which is diagnosed by the way and I've had several sleep studies done on me.

Medication helps but it's not fun in the long run (just ask me). That said even before my weird gray shroud of reality of not sleeping hit me permanently I always got my most creative periods after sundown, even after waking up at 6AM as I normally do.

So if you're creative because of not sleeping, good on you, but is it worth being a zombie otherwise?

 

How do you pull that off? I mean, I understand pill to clear your head, to get up if you will

That's also to "get up", your di... romantic tool in this case. A friend told me...

 

At night in your bed not sleeping but closer to sleep, it might make you better musically cause you are closer to your subconcious more right brain type of thinking, which tends to be more creative (Right brain) whereas if you are fully, fullly awake that brain part is hardero full acces (for most people ).
My Ai chatbot says this about the concept"


The right hemisphere of the brain is often associated with:

• Creativity and intuition
• Musicality and spatial awareness
• Emotional processing and visual thinking
  

Although both hemispheres work together, dominance can shift depending on your mental state.


Why Creativity Increases Before Sleep
Just before falling asleep, you enter a hypnagogic state — a transitional phase between wakefulness and sleep. In this state:

• Logical thinking (left hemisphere) becomes less active
• Free association and imagination become more prominent
• You may experience spontaneous ideas or musical inspiration
  

This explains why some people feel more creative at night — their minds are less inhibited by rational filters.

Making Music in Bed: A Neurological Advantage?
When someone lies in bed and makes music:

• The brain is often more relaxed, which fosters creativity
• The right hemisphere may become more dominant, especially for musical expression
• The inner critic (often linked to the left hemisphere) quiets down
  

So yes, it’s quite possible that this person is unknowingly tapping into a neurological window where creativity flows more freely.


How You Can Use This
If you create music, write, paint, or compose:

• Try working right before sleep
• Or even right after waking up, when you're still in a dreamy state
• Meditation or mild fatigue can also help activate the right hemisphere
  

 

Cool music +family activuty during day help me to sleep well

 

1. Pick your favorite artist/band.
2. Spell their name backwards.
3. Keep going until you pass out.

 

What is this thing you call "sleep". Is it a plugin? Can I eat it? Drink it? I have no knowledge of this thing you speak of.

 

Fans of ABBA: Wow, thanks man.

 

I walk about 10km a day with my dog, combine that with a j or 3 and a few glasses of white wine, I get to sleep at 9.30 pm no problem.

 

What a subtle analogy...
I can imagine the writer in an interview like "well, you know, my romantic tool wouldn't get up so my doctor prescribed me that blue pill... tough times bro... but my inspiration pulled off a great song outta it"

 

I´ve had period of 6 months where i barely had 2 hrs per day.
..a limp mode, no sleep at all, anexiety 0-27.

But what i did is not blue or red pill, it was running first thing in the morning, cold shower and lying in bed every day minute accurate untill i started sleeping(it took me 2-3 weeks). If one is constantly inside in a pancake mode i would suggest being outside as much as possible, also cutting sugars, just doing fruits, protein and fats and movement, letting body build a history of body temperature dips alongside light exposure as much as possible.

 

I started this thread with 'I don't want to know if you take pills' because what I find interesting is not medication, but rather the way you found (if any) to take advantage of a sleepless night to produce something you are proud of. ('Ah, I didn't sleep a lot last night but it was worth it!')
