How to recover from Jet Lag/ Time Zone difference

[Calaf]

Since coming from Singapore, I did not have a single good night sleep

My body clock is still accustomed to times of Malaysia and Singapore!
I wake up in weird hours, sleep late!
Can some one give me advise on how to recover from this!

If you get jet-lagged then you haven't traveled enough.

Just plan ahead and sleep on the flight if you need to.

No silver bullet I'm afraid.

I slept on the flight and it has been nearly 4 days and still have not recovered

If you get jet-lagged then you haven't traveled enough.

Once a while traveler I am. The longest trip was this!

Sxb I'm not a doctor but you either need to get your sleep cycle back in order or you probably caught something during the trip.

I hate that jet lag feeling, but what helps is keeping your sleep routine, don’t just sleep at noon even if you are extremely tired try to stay up until night time.

The funny thing is that I am tired most of the time, then when it comes to night, I ain't tired
Its just a habit of mine, I woke up very early back down in Singapore, and would sleep very late, if not a little

Any tips ?

I’ll be there for 2 1/2 weeks

I’ve noticed, as a seasoned traveler
That whenever I come back to the states it takes me 8 days to get rid of this fatigue, weird tiredness and exhaustion. Kaalay sheeg why a little 5 days to places like Colombia would render me useless. But then again I go for cheap flights which takes me around the block.

I think I am immune to jet lag, I never get it.

Force yourself to sleep at 10pm and wake up 6am everyday.

Circadian rhythm will be back to normal within days.

If this routine doesn’t work and take melatonin.

October/November! Brother your staying most of the time inside your room since it is rainy season
Touristic areas is a no no!, go to local markets for the same thing for a local price

DO NOT GO to a central Kuala Lumpar hotel, since its not worth the cost. Try areas such as Salangor (Bit far out of KL, but good transport connection)
Most Islands are over rated, the best Malaysian island is Borneo or Penang Island
Have 2 holidays at the same time. If you have time, visit singapore whilst your at it. Beautiful and also travel is cheap
SOME restaurants are accused anti Muslim activities . If during lunch time you see no one entering it, AVOID IT!
Street Food is too nice and cheap, avoid getting fat! It is very nice and Halal, so I can expect 5- 10 KG wihin a week
Visit the flea market on a Saturday, Everybody goes!
Xalimos which are there are there for a reason, STUDYING! Keep hands and eyes away from them!
Visas. If you decided to go to a local airport, and the guard "sees" something wrong with your visa, you know what to do! Slip 150 RM and everybody shall be happy


Enjoy!

I think you should fake it till you make it. Force yourself to sleep at the right time you want then see the results after that. I’m pretty sure your sleeping pattern would revert back to being the same.

Take @Yusra Luuza Advice

Thank you so much for taking the time.

Let me give you my game plan

I’ll be there for 2 weeks

I’ve rented 4 different Airbnbs just so I don’t get stuck at a nightmarish host.

I’ll be in KL for the first 4 buildings but I’ll fly out to Langkawi for 4 days.

Then I’ll be back in KL for the remainder of my holidays.

I intend to walk a lot and explore.

I’m also a foodie guy

I intend to get massages ( not sex).

Shop a little

I won’t behave like a tourist.

( why would I have a problem with my Visa? I got an American passport dammit)

(I will have a Xaliimo for maybe 3 days. I will get rid of her afterwards).

"Visa" = Money
Somebody will and will stop you and claim that your "visa" is invaliad and you need to go to the "Immigration Department" - Just pay the 150 RM "Fine"

The rest is looking good. For Massages DO NOT GO to the Chinatown. I am sorry but that is a place is for "Happy Endings" and also it is illegal and bit dangerous!

Overall Malaysia is a nice place, and you will enjoy it!

Yep Thanks! Kinda helped me, but the body is moving all weak at times
The only weird thing is that it has been a week, and I wake up at random hours, with my body being tired, but I could not go back to sleep
If it doesn't become better, then Melaontin is the only solution

I’m going to a blind people giving massage place.

What about the metro? I’m hopping on the metro to get to my Airbnb as I get of the plane. I don’t even wanna take a cab. Speaking of a cab, have you tried Grab?

I use it from time to time in Singapore, but never in Malaysia
Don't use it, since 1 min late = cancellation fee!
Driver does not want to go to your area = Cancellation fee!

Coming from Airport, I would say use MyCar, since it is fixed and also effective
When travelling at late night, use taxi!
Metro is good from time to time!
