I have no problems falling asleep but do wake up exceptionally early at around 4am. I used to put it down to the noisy environment I live in, but I no longer think that is the reason.
I tried using a brown noise generator for a few weeks. Created the audio file and then plugged it into a sound bar in the bedroom. Seemed to work ok for a few nights. Then I started dreaming (which I rarely do) of voices in the brown noise. Gave me nightmares for a few nights and then stopped using it. Just use foam ear plugs now.
Weird thing is that when I wake at 4am, I feel ok. On those very rare nights that I sleep in to say 5:30 or thereabouts, I feel like crap. I am groggy, still feel half asleep, which lasts until at least mid-morning. I hate waking up at 4am, but would rather that than being groggy.
