I like to double down and do the healthy thing: get up at 5:30 and go to the gym.

    For me this was every day for over a decade. Why go to sleep early when you’ll feel shitty No matter what. As soon as you fall asleep it means you suffer all over again.

    Anyways Turns out I have sleep apnea. CPAP Isn’t magic, but it has made a big difference. I know longer have a passive deathwish. If you feel like. This meme relates to you. Then maybe go get asleep. Study done and give CPAP a shot.

    Yesterday I accidentally fell asleep at 18:00 and had the best night’s sleep in a while. Woke up at about 7:30.

    Heh, not a parent, just working against my chronotype or whatever it’s called, still get it. Should go to sleep at 9pm at most…but I get my energy boost around 7-8 pm. So when I should go asleep I am most motivated abd have most energy for the day. Yay.

      My chronotype wants me sleeping 1am until 9am, unfortunately my partner likes to attempt to get up more like 7am with multiple alarms and I’m one of these people that one they’re awoken, I’m not gonna go back to sleep whatever I try.

      I get a full night’s sleep maybe once or twice a month

      It’s a double-edged sword as abandoning your personal time is mentally exhausting. But, yeah, being consistently sleep deprived creates a domino effect of making everything less enjoyable or even miserable, including your personal time.

        Being around kids is fine in the right head space. But it’s really really hard when you just keep thinking I just want to take a nap.

          Oh 100%, but if you’re never allowing yourself free time, you’re going to end up having side effects from that. Regardless, you shouldn’t need to sleep deprive yourself in order to get some time off.

    This last night I gave in for once and went to bed when the kid did, holy carp she had a good night so I got just shy of 6 hours in one chunk. This may end up being the first 8 hour total I’ve gotten in months. Really like the me time but I was starting to feel rough yesterday
