To ask how to bloody sleep

[MyKingdomForACaramel]

For the last 4 months I cannot sleep properly. I wake at 4am tm maybe 5am. I unfortunately have a tree right outside my window with nesting parakeets (it’s like having a budgie cage in the room).

Habe tried earplugs (they fall out of my ears), and also tried white noise on my headphones - which keeps me awake.

Please help as I’m going slightly mad

To be clear there’s also a bit of stress thing going on - if I wake at 5am I think I may as well get up and start working... if it’s 4am I stress over how tired I will be when I start working

I'm having success with meditation for my sleep issues. .i use headspace . Quite frankly it's not meditation but I fall asleep nearly as soon as the man starts talking.... works for me 😂😂
