How exactly can you get disciplined or self improve with a poor environment w those you live with?
I'm in my 20s living with my parents. Doing all the right things you can think of but I'm highly sensitive to noises/have really good hearing and my room is directly walled to my parents bedroom. The noise of my dad's snoring is unbearably loud that I haven't slept all night whilst gets me back into an upside down sleep cycle that topples all my efforts such as sleep hygiene, healthy eating, being able to improve my life, seizing the day and opportunities, getting a higher paid job, etc. Poor sleep genuinely affects all of the above, and financially at this moment moving out isn't an option and of course I won't wait around for that moment to continue to self improve.
Just wondering if anyone has any advice. Already ask them to shut the door tight, already put those noise foam pads, already suggested he see a doctor who said it wasnt for any reason e.g. sleep apnea. I tell him to use strips but he's inconsistent. I'm going to ask him more firmly to wear them almost every night especially if he's had any alcoholic drinks that day and explain how it affects me.
It's so hard to improve your life when those you live with aren't. My dad being older and retired doesn't care to, this is the rest of his days now. When he drinks even a regular amount of alcohol (1-3 drinks) his snoring is horrendously louder. I tell him to wear strips which helps the noise but he conveniently most of the time forgets, since he doesn't want to stop drinking alcohol. He also sleeps at 12am and snores the night away until 11am whilst the rest of us, my mum and siblings, lead normal lives and healthy normal sleep schedules, have healthy habits etc.
It's a drag down but I also respect if he wants to live a different life but I'm struggling to cope with the snoring. I can live with the rest. Ear plugs can work but fall out or are uncomfortable. Snore blocker YouTube videos work but my headphones only have so much battery and have the same issues as ear plugs. Both make it harder to fall and stay asleep.
Many nights I try to fall asleep before he does so that I sleep through it, but ironically that anxiety/pressure of having a time frame causes stress that in turn keeps me up and causss a tense environment where you can't relax/unwind to sleep.
Am I doomed to earplugs and YouTube music 😅 I've come so far and this is the one thing just stopping me. I'm too tired in the day to work on self improvement especially career thanks to this.
