RLS and sleep feed each other: bad legs wreck the night, and a short night makes the next evening worse. What has actually helped you break that loop, even a little? Please share real, specific things, not the typical generic sleep-hygiene list.
Has treating your RLS or PLMD actually given you your sleep back, or only part of it? I'm trying to set realistic expectations for people just starting treatment.
Does anything about your evening routine make the difference between a manageable night and a terrible one? I'm interested in the specific things that move the needle for you.
For those with a bed partner: how do you both cope when the kicking or the restlessness keeps you both up? Please share what you've worked out together.
What does your routine look like on a bad night? Curious whether people have found something that reliably takes the edge off — a stretch, a warm bath, a specific position — or whether it feels more like a lottery each time.
