So recently Ive been trying to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. Including weekends which blows since no sleeping in but it's the closest I've felt to being rested in a long time
-
Yes. As someone who has felt tired since middle school, this makes a huge difference. I love sleeping in so it’s hard to keep to it but it’s worth it.

Get a sleep study. CPAP was an absolute game changer for actually feeling rested in the morning. It makes me sad about how much more I could have accomplished had I known I had sleep apnea earlier in life.

for me it's somehow magically only about when i wake up, if i'm not able to wake up around 11:00 the whole day is basically wasted, but it doesn't matter if i go to bed at 22:00 or 02:00, it's still 11:00

Solution: don't sleep

Ironically I felt better at the end after (mostly - nap) staying up for 45 hours. Felt like shit after waking up after that though.

Go get a sleep study friend.

Average Guy with Sleep Apnea
I felt this way until I got a CPAP. Life changing.
I’m one of the few where the cpap, while fixing my apnea, does absolutely dick for my feeling rested.
Man I've been suggested to get tested for that. But around the time they were staying to talk about it more I had a more life and death thing come up.
Haven't really been back to the GP in a bit. He'll probably bring it up later this year when I go back for a physical. But if rather stay like this than have the mask. Ain't no way I'm sleeping with that on. I roll back and forth constantly. Feel like my guts really wanna slowly ooze down (which when laying on your side, means side to side) constantly. I can sleep on my back, and usually do I think. But I can't fall asleep with anything near my face or restricting my movement at all.
Using some kinda noise helps the restful part a lot though. Colored noise, muffled voices (as in sounds like conversations down the hall, muffled by a few walls), nature sounds (especially thunder and rain and crickets), and whatever those singing bowls are called do wonders for me.
But even when I get tested, the first few hours usually have to happen before my brain is firing on all cylinders. So about 90 minutes or so before lunch I will finally be all there.
There's a number of different models I've had luck with. I'll say finding a mask that fits comfortably probably knocks me out faster than sleeping without it. I don't repeatedly wake myself up with my own snoring.
Sure. Get up, have some coffee, take a shower - the more time you're upright and breathing properly, the less tired you feel.
But insufficient sleep is still awful for you long term, especially if you're spending half the night asphyxiating every few minutes.
