For the last week or so, I’ve been waking up several hours earlier than normal and not being able to get back to restful sleep. I’ve never had this problem before, I’m just getting more exhausted by the day because I’m not getting to sleep much earlier

Then I find out other people are experiencing the same thing, same timeframe - around a week ago it just started for seemingly no reason

    Light intrusion isn’t the only factor, there’s also the temperature. It’s getting warmer earlier, so your AC is likely turning on earlier. You’re hearing the motors and wind and feeling the breeze at different times than a few weeks ago, which will also affect your sleep cycle. The birds chirping outside are active earlier, too.

    All your mid-day stimuli are hitting sooner, basically.
