If you don't want to buy my glasses, that's cool, but I'd still reccommend at least trying out these inexpensive ones on Amazon to see what you are missing.\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Uvex-Blocking-Computer-Glasses-SCT-Orange/dp/B000USRG90","subreddit_name":"Nootropics","author":"MichaelChapiro"},{"body":"I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend you consider buying blue-blocking glasses. I got mine about two weeks ago, and they seem to be quite the help so far. People on Amazon also talk very positively about them. \r\n\r\nThis is the pair I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000USRG90/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1\r\n\r\n**Edit:** And put them on at night. I put mine on about two hours before my bedtime.","subreddit_name":"ADHD","author":"kierkegaard1855"},{"body":"1) Essentially doing porn and \"other things\" uses a lot of dopamine similarly to doing drugs. You use a lot of dopamine while \"doing it\", and then your brain is filled with so much dopamine that it makes it hard to think and act normally. Do this on a weekly basis and you're programming your mind to depend on these dopamine bursts to function, and it will be hard to function when you're not \"doing it.\" It's essentially an addiction even if doesn't feel like it and can be the cause of mental instability. \r\n\r\nThis website can explain it better: yourbrainonporn.com. Also search some TED talks about this if you're feeling lazy. \r\n\r\n2) I bought these orange glasses off of Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Uvex-Blocking-Computer-Glasses-SCT-Orange/dp/B000USRG90 \r\n\r\nThe reviews do a good explaining about the effects of blue light and mental state. \r\n\r\n3) Plain yogurt, eggs, bananas, and meats are good sources of L-tyrosine. \r\n\r\nHope you feel better :)\r\n\r\n","subreddit_name":"intj","author":"akademia"},{"body":"Lots of them on Amazon.  Blue light is apparently involved in the sleep cycle, and you can either minimize screen-time before bed, or eliminate the blue light from screens before bed.  As a PC gamer and reddit-addict, I choose the glasses.  I wear them to start winding down for bed, so I'm not blasted by blue up to the moment I wander off to bed.  Do they work?  Maybe.  My eyes definately feel better, sleep may be quicker, but I can't tell.  \r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000USRG90/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1  \r\n\r\nGood grief, down below $10.   I swear I bought them from this exact link for $30.    \r\n\r\n(Lots of PC monitors have blue-light filter options, for this reason)\r\n\r\nEdit:  And for real, wearing the glasses, this pallet jack looks like a completely normal yellow jack.","subreddit_name":"mildlyinteresting","author":"makealittlegravy"},{"body":"Oh wow those look way more comfortable. I got [these ones ](Uvex S1933X Skyper Safety... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B000USRG90?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) I might have to see if I can get ones like yours. I stopped wearing mine because my nose huuurt lol.\r\n(Edit: Sorry if the formatting messes up I’m on mobile)","subreddit_name":"aspergirls","author":"kalayasha"},{"body":"Have you tried [something like these](http://www.amazon.com/Uvex-S1933X-Eyewear-SCT-Orange-Anti-Fog/dp/B000USRG90)? They're all of $9. Yes, they look stupid, but they block wavelengths of light from the limit of UV to about 550nm or so (greenish/yellow), which are the primary drivers of melatonin suppression. You may be getting a lot of blue light from other sources before bed, and having your melatonin suppressed. \r\n\r\nPut the glasses on 90 to 120 minutes before bed. Don't take them off without closing your eyes or being in a fully dark room. When going to bed, only remove them when the light is off, and make sure there are NO lights on in your bedroom - OR - wear a sleep mask and put it on while closing your eyes after taking the safety googles off.\r\n\r\nThe one thing I don't do is drive with them (hard to see traffic signals and judge distance with no blues/violets/very little green - when you wear these, you'll see dark blues as black, for example). Otherwise, I wear them an hour or two before bed, and I get a LOT better sleep. When I don't wear them because I was driving closer to bed time or simply forget to put them on, I don't fall asleep as quickly, and don't wake up as refreshed. I have mostly CFL lights in my house. \r\n\r\nTry using those glasses for a week or two, and see if your sleep improves. If not, try consulting your doctor to see if the meds messed with your hormones somehow. ","subreddit_name":"sleep","author":"eyesontheskydotcom"},{"body":"To add to the circadian thing, it really helps to block all blue light wavelengths. I use [these safety goggles](http://www.amazon.com/Uvex-S1933X-Eyewear-SCT-Orange-Anti-Fog/dp/B000USRG90/ref=sr_1_1?) (not pretty, but they block the right wavelengths). Put them on 90 to 120 minutes before you go to bed. Your eyes have a photosensitive receptor on them called melanopsin. It controls when your body releases melatonin. In the presence of blue wavelengths (460-480 nm) of light, the melanopsin blocks melatonin production. \r\n\r\nThose goggles will block those blue wavelengths. (I don't recommend wearing them if you are driving at night.) Then you can still watch TV, use a computer and stuff. Just don't take them off at all, or the process resets to zero. Close your eyes if necessary to remove them for a few moments. \r\n\r\nThen, after turning off the lights in your room to go to bed, close your eyes and put on a sleep mask to block any extraneous light. I use a lightweight knit cap and pull it over my eyes. \r\n\r\nI used to be SO tired in the morning, and now I wake up refreshed *before* my alarm.

I’m sensitive to sunlight, but artificial light (even when it’s very bright) has never bothered me. I suspect my sun sensitivity may have something to do with the UV part of the spectrum. If you are sensitive to artificial light, you may have better luck with putting on blue blocking glasses two hours before your ideal bed time. The [Uvex Skyper glasses](https://www.amazon.com/Uvex-Blocking-Computer-SCT-Orange-S1933X/dp/B000USRG90) glasses on Amazon have been tested to block virtually all blue light, and they’re not too expensive (under $12 last time I checked).","subreddit_name":"cfs","author":"PorcupineProblem"},{"body":"Yes this actually works.
