I found an amazing cure for my insomnia. It's called 'being in your late 40s.'

Ironically, I developed insomnia right after turning 40... Went on a 6 straight days of no sleep couple of weeks ago. Thank goodness I'm also laid off...

My forties have brought night sweats. If I don't set the AC to 63° I wake up just absolutely drenched in sweat, it's awful.

Please talk of this to your physician, if you are healthy and have night sweats it could hide something bad. Happened recently with a friend. Could be nothing at all but better safe than sorry. Take care ;)

Thanks but I already know what it is - perimenopause!

Like seriously my forties have been the worst I've ever slept. Thirties definitely my best sleeping decade so far from a restfulness perspective. Glad you're rocking it though. Gives me hope.

Once I hit 45, I started going to bed at 8.

Yeah, but what about the heartburn?

Losing weight helped me a lot.

Stop eating American food, works 9/10 times.

instructions unclear, Turkish gyro still gave me heartburn (but it was worth it)

... are you from one of those cultures that doesn't use spices?

I'm from one of those cultures that doesn't stop using spices. A quick reminder that the poison authorized by your FDA as "food safe" doesn't count as a spice.
