Maybe we should also talk about how Sg's pro-business/employer work culture and unreasonably early school start times are also huge causes of poor sleep and maybe the solution is in creating a more employee-friendly work culture and starting school one or two hours later rather than buying all these new superfoods and weird pillows.
Maybe you should just migrate to another country if u are so lazy. Stop blaming everyone except yourself dumbass
It is good enough to have not enough sleep rather than no sleep at all. Even if it is poor quality like you only sleep for 3 hours and all the time waking up to pee, but you know that you did sleep a little. It is not no sleep at all. Or some nuisance keeps you from sleeping. Like you almost drop off to real sleep and some trouble making 4 W drives ride into your driveway and start calling out to your neighbor and all your sleep is gone.
Poor sleep is cause by the blue light coming from the hand phone especially during the night time that is why we find it hard to sleep at night
Not just Singapore, pretty much Asia. In my country, it's 7.15 AM!
@@whereeveritgoes PERIODT! School starts at 7:15 but students have to be in school before 7 and to do so students and parents have to wake up at 5am to get ready and leave before 6 just to not get caught in traffic jam!!!
me who sleeps only 3-4 hours a day watching this: 👁👄👁
me watching this at 12am and having to wake up at 5am for school 👁👄👁
It's good enough
@@gabriellahu6353 It's good enough but you can make it better since you don't have other causes of sleeplessness.
One,balm,calm the way that person says it is so funny and sounds kinda familiar somehow
I guess most of us are working and dont want to spend too much time sleeping because it feels like wasting your day... Thats the real problem in my opinion.
It might just be metabolic, I was over exercising, under eating and not getting enough carbs which resulted in several nutritional deficiencies etc (thought I was being healthy at the time) unknowingly I was putting my body in a catabolic state which will cause the body to stay awake and alert, as it is meant to. Think about what you are doing and what messages you are sending to your central nervous system via the way you eat exercise and live...you might be putting your body in survival mode and its simply doing what its meant to be doing. It took me a long time to work out, I had put myself in a form of metabolic burn out. I did a sleep study, sleep hygiene, saw various sleep experts...they all missed this and the treatments offered were not relevant for what I was experiencing.
I hope this helps some people out there, it can be very frustrating particularly when you don't know why it is happening.
Bro I need to talk to you...
On the "investing in technology" bit, i have a really simple, inexpensive but equally effective alternative (for those who don't yet know), just get a pedestal fan that makes a lot of white noise & if it doesn't just cover the air intake of the fan at the back with a cloth.
who else is watching this with chronic insomnia and using nightly sleeping pills/antipsychotics just to knock yourself out...
Im having insomnia for 2mths now it really trigger ne when i didn't have enough sleep and make me lees appetite. I've to take prescription pill.. Any tips or herbal tt can take so to not take doctor pill?
@@aquarius113Hello, I'm a pharmacist. I would say try melatonin to see if that helps you, magnesium is also pretty good for aiding sleep. If those don't work then it's worth while taking the prescription medications to ensure you're getting a good enough sleep.
You can also talk with your doctor to see what they'd recommend because they should be helping you towards your healthcare goals. Your Doctor knows your healthcare situation and can advise you on the best course of action to take.
Do you know what may have caused your sleep to be inadequate?
Can Talking Point do a serial on type of cards or devices we can use to for our MRT train and LTA buses. I just realize we can use our credit card to tap like our EZLink card. Others have been using phones or even smart watches.
Anyone know where to but the sleep pillow mentioned in this video? thanks in advance
Where to buy the noise cancelling earbuds and the pillow?
I would love to be able to sleep 9 hours every night but I usually manage only half that ☹️
That is very good already if you realize that there are people out there who suffer worse than you
can you share the recipe of banana tea please?
how to sleep. SG's workload is crazy. stressful. expensive, and bloody humid. gross … sigh
If it is the weather that is the only cause, then your option will be an air cond.
@@switchback4312 that's not the only cause, as stated. It's SG's culture of competing, high living expenses and workload. overpopulated. come weekend everyone avoid the heat and crowd into malls. The heat makes daily activities even more miserable, and most of us lived without aircon in the living room etc in HDBs. cannot keep relying on AC 24/7 365 days also.. need to save the planet ah bro.
Im having insomnia for 2mth.. Any tips or natural remedies? So i don't need to take prescription pill?
This docu-series missed out several other devices such near infra red mask and blue light cancelling glasses.
Different people have different reasons for their sleeplessness. Once the root cause is removed, the problem will also be removed. If the root problem is not removed, you will still suffer. All the different remedies can work to a certain extend. But the problem still exists.
Too hot and humid in the night to have good sleep..... Even with fan
Of course, mosquitoes bothers also.
Your fan too lousy.
@@noproblematallmate Good to block out the outside noises
Option air cond
@@switchback4312 Yeah... No choice. But can't afford to pay for electric bills....
Impossible in SG unless you are well off
interestingly i am watching this in the middle of the night which in fact i should be sleeping, how ironic!
Sleepless watching this programme
Noise cancel is unwise
What if there's a fire and people are screaming but you can't hear
recipe for banana tea?
The book "Why we sleep" by Dr. Matt Walker is something I would recommend.
We all need to sleep and sleep should be able to come naturally but due to circumstances, sleep just does not happen.
Nice girl, all these are true, plus a hot shower before bed, making the room pitch black, block any external noise with earplugs, use a c-pap if you tent to snoar....and maybe take a multivitamin tablet few hours before bed time...
A snorer is a very good sleeper. But she will wake up the others.
No coffee, no tea, no coca cola or other excitant at all during the day. Doing sports or just walk. Wash the face, decollete, arm pits and feet before sleeping or take a full shower.
Don't drink before sleeping, anyway I personally still want to pee... In this case, don't wait to go pee, go as soon as it wakes you up or it will ruin your whole night.
Don't postpone, during the day, what you can do now, do it now or it will bother you at night.
But very often the stress of life beats all our efforts...
You mean well but there are many other causes like your neighbor who just does not realize how loud it is and all the wild animals does not know that almost all human beings have to sleep at rest except those who have to do night shifts
You are quite right! I didn't think of it when I wrote even though I often "experience" both.... And It's also hard for people sleeping during the day! They're so many reasons for being unable to sleep...
@@soniak5421 Trouble making motorbikers who purposely make their motorbikes so loud after 12 midnight.
If everyone stay off the phone they will have a good night rest it is the blue light that cause people to lose a good night rest
Also the smartphone's sound is loud whether it is from games or music or another person's voice and this is because the user does not realize how loud the smartphone can get
Haven't slept for 3 days straight..
You are not alone
Whose here cuz they can’t sleep? 😂
Ah, come on, there are no above 35 on this planet that normally sleeps more than 8 h a day
8 hours a day is too good
No, 6 hours is what an adult should sleep and 9 hours for children. I sleep 4 hours and it's because i can't sleep longer
Praise the Lord, I still enjoy uninterrupted 8-10 hours sound sleep without the help of pills...
i sleep a lot but i sleepy anyways
Must be snoozing
Strange what a crock
Dogs wanna earn more Sing dollar, also dogs wanna sleep more. I suggest dogs to work in sleep.
Sooo...can milo before bed help me sleep better?
Grandma was wrong, host chose banana tea in the end.
Milo still help to sleep too !
Anything warm that cause the blood to move to the stomach.
Lol 5hrs average
japan will retake the kurils sakhalin and vladivostok south kore will take north korea.
Just go back to the basics, you always sensational everythings! And you will fall asleep. BS!
If you don't sleep and you have to work, it is suffering.
