Please... Please let me respec my fucking sleep points

Honestly, I held out so long talking to my doc about insomnia. I was pretty miserable due to it, I’d get 5-6 hours of sleep a night. Once I talked to my doc and got some meds to help, holy shit what a change! Now I’m getting a full 8 hours and I’m so much happier throughout the day

Try night shift for a few months. You will absolutely despise the sun because no matter how tired you are during your shift, as soon as that bastard comes up you will struggle to fall asleep as you become increasingly more frustrated at that fact, leaving you even more fatigued for your next shift and destroying your mental health. Experiencing that has totally cured my disdain for any amount of trouble falling asleep at night, because at least your body kinda knows you're supposed to be sleeping at night.

Also, the clients you have to deal with at night if you're in the service industry tends to be 10x more horrible than your average daytime Karen. I legit had someone scream at me for waking them up with an emergency call to them despite them being the ones to pay extra for 24/7 live notifications on the systems we manage for them.

(Obviously not actually saying you should actually try night shift, quite the opposite. It fucking sucks, avoid it like the plague.)

Stop using your phone in bed. It will work wonders.

my brain at 3am: 6 hours of sleep is plenty, I'm finely exhausted enough to stop

my brain at 9 am after drinking coffee:

my brain at noon: STOP BOTHERING ME ASSHOLE!

Try to learn math at night, it will 99% work.

Stick to a sleeping schedule. Works wonders
