5 Common Reasons For Waking Up More Than Once During The Night

Struggling to sleep? Here are five common reasons and how to fix them:

Phone Use Before Bed Staring at your phone before sleep

can “hugely interrupt sleep cycles.” Avoid using your phone in the hour before bed—try reading a book instead.

Stress and Anxiety Feeling anxious can make it difficult to relax. Your mind is

“moving a mile a minute,” making sleep elusive. Calm your thoughts or try meditation to wind down.

Frequent Bathroom Visits If you’re waking up to use the bathroom, it’s tough to

fall back asleep. Limit liquids before bed and make sure you go to the bathroom right before you sleep.

Caffeine and Alcohol Caffeine can stay in your system for hours, so it’s best to

“avoid coffee past 2 p.m.” While alcohol may help you fall asleep, it “hugely impacts your REM sleep,” leading to multiple wake-ups.

Insomnia Insomnia can make falling and staying asleep nearly impossible.

Try sticking to a routine, but if it persists, consult your doctor for solutions.

I LEFT MY LAPTOP IN THE CAR FOR TEN MINUTES—AND LOST WAY MORE THAN THAT I parked right in front of the coffee shop. Broad daylight, busy street, people walking by nonstop. I figured, Ten minutes. I’ll be in and out. My laptop bag was on the passenger seat. I usually throw a jacket over it, but this time… I didn’t. By the time I came out, the driver-side window was shattered. Glass everywhere. On the seat, on the floor, inside the damn cup holders. I just stood there, heart pounding, holding my iced coffee like an idiot. The laptop was gone. At first, I was just mad—like furious, sweaty, curse-out-loud mad. Then it hit me: that laptop wasn’t just work. It had everything. Old journals. Personal notes. A scanned folder labeled “Taxes & Custody.” A half-written email draft to my lawyer that I hadn’t sent yet. And something else—something I shouldn’t have saved, but did. A PDF of court transcripts. From a case I wasn’t even supposed to have access to. The same case involving someone I thought I’d left behind years ago. I looked around, hoping maybe someone had seen something. But the people nearby just kept walking. A few glanced over, but no one stopped. Then a woman in scrubs passed by, did a double take, and froze. “You drive a white Kia?” she asked slowly. I nodded. Her face changed. “I think… I saw the guy who took it.” Before I could ask anything else, she added— (Story continues in the first 🗨️👇)

I CAME HOME TO FIND MY KIDS SLEEPING IN THE HALLWAY – WHEN I SAW WHAT HAPPENED TO THEIR ROOM, I LOST IT I left my husband with the kids while I went on a week-long trip, thinking it wouldn’t be a big deal. But when I got home, I found my boys sleeping on the cold, dirty hallway floor. My heart dropped. Something was wrong. Was there a fire? A flood? No, my husband would’ve told me. I flicked the light off and carefully stepped over the boys, heading deeper into the house. I opened our bedroom door — empty. My husband was gone at midnight? That’s weird. Then I checked the boys’ room, bracing myself for the worst. As I approached, I heard muffled noises. Quietly, without turning on the light, I cracked the door open to see what was happening. I GASPED out loud, as in a dim light, I saw ⬇️
