I used to always play music to get to sleep - until I was 19 or so, but my husband got tired of it and asked me to try to stop. It took a little while to get used to it, but I'm fine without any noise now.

Sometimes I have to unplug the radio in my room because I can hear the soft buzz of the electricity, I think.

NO noise is best. I can tolerate the sound of the fan, or of one of my kids breathing beside me.

Definitely NO radio or television on for a deep sleep. I find myself "listening" to every word, and unable to be just lulled by the rythm.

Just my quirk.

I sleep with a fan, have since I was a child and cannot sleep without one. I am also very particular about the fan.. cant have one that does not sound a certain way. I am a very very light sleeper, any variation of noises and I am wide awake in a second. The radio or TV drives me batty. Any change in noises, such as a talk show with people clapping and I bolt upright in bed. Once you get used a fan, theres nothing else like it. Even have my husband liking the sound. In fact I am sure that is what contributed to the failure of my first marriage, he hated my fan and would not allow it <_< so I got to listen to him snore and snuffle all night, moved out of the bedroom so I could have my fan, wasnt long after we seperated. Of course there were other issues... lol.

I don't have any sleep problems, but do enjoy having the fan on when I fall asleep. I usually wake up early (6-7 AM) and fall asleep like clockwork at 10:30. Usually the entire family is watching TV (the olympics, lately), and I have my head back on the pillow and my eyes get heavy. During school I don't fall asleep to the TV, but the fan would still be nice, I guess.

About the noisemaker, my mom had one of those, and I used to borrow it sometimes since I went to bed before she did and put it on summer night. I didn't like the stream or rain cause those made me want to use the bathroom....lol :D

      I take Niacin, bilberry, Omega threes, zinc, selenium, and Vitamins C and A for eye health, skin health and digestive tract health.  The skin, digestive system and eyes are all derived from basically the same sort of cells.  Niacin is extremely important to keeping these tissues healthy.    Niacin has be shown to prevent cataracts and improve eye health.  Niacin is turned into tryptophan which is necessary to heal the digestive tract.  Tryptophan is used to make Serotonin, a very important neurotransmitter in mood regulation.  Those with Niacin insufficiency become irritable and easily upset, angry, even. Niacin improves skin health.  The flushing of Niacin opens the smallest blood vessels in the skin so that waste products can more easily be removed.  I have Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  Niacin helps drain away those built up antibodies in the blisters and improve skin health.   Bilberry contains lutein and zeaxanthin and other anthocyanins,  potent antioxidants that help protect the eyes from macular degeneration and cataracts.  Bilberry has sGLT1 and GLUT2 which help to lower glucose levels by removing excess glucose from the bloodstream.  High blood glucose levels are bad for eye health.   Omega Threes are important to provide relief in dry eyes.  You are familiar with how oil floats on water.  Same thing happens with eyes.  Omega threes provide the oily layer that protects water from evaporating from the eyes causing dry eyes.  Omega threes in olive oil, sunflower seed oil,  and flaxseed oils will help improve dry eyes. Vitamin A and Riboflavin B2 are important in this function as well.   None of the medications I was given improved my dry eyes.  I increased my Omega threes and Vitamin A, and had improvement very quickly. Selenium and zinc are important in skin and eye barrier functions, too, and are important to preventing infections. When I take 100 mg of Niacin every three hours (but not more than 500 mg/day), my skin and eye health improves.  If one is deficient in Niacin, the flushing effects may be uncomfortable, but ride it out, continue taking Niacin and the flushing goes away as niacin stores inside cells are repleted.  When flushing, don't scratch!  Use pressure applied over a bigger area above the itch.  I wrap up in a towel or blanket to create the counter pressure.  The flushing goes away the longer one takes Niacin.  Don't use Niacinamide (the non flushing form of Niacin).   Other vitamins that improve eye health are Vitamin E and Pyridoxine B6 and Thiamine B1.  Most Vitamin E sold is derived from wheat germ, so find another source of Vitamin E.  I used Evening Primrose oil, also a source of healthy Omega threes and helps with female problems like perimenopause  and menopause symptoms. Do be aware that antifungals and antibiotics (as are frequently prescribed) destroy Thiamine.  Immunosuppressive drugs can suppress production of tTg antibodies.  Supplementing with thiamine above the RDA is safe and nontoxic.  RDA were set as the lowest amount to prevent illness.  Optimal health is seen in higher amounts.   Do talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing essential nutrients.   References: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39183990/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41156490/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7602486/

My impression so far is the NAC is doing good.  Best with meal.
