I love it because I fall asleep easier and wake up more fresh
Anyone else like to drink water when they’re extremely thirsty?
I do, so good.
Nah, I like to eat potato chips and shovel salt into my mouth until my lips crack in ecstacy
Hahahahahah
Anyone else like to breath when they require oxygen?
Come on Lemmy, surely we can do better than this.
Everyone laughs like this is obvious, but I really struggle to do this. I’m not sure if it’s an ADHD thing, but I just can’t make myself go to bed at night. Extremely tired? Nah, I’d better wait until I hit a second wind. There’s unimportant stuff I’d rather do.
I envy those that can just fall asleep whenever they want. It usually takes me an hour or more of laying there to finally bore myself enough to pass out.
Depression for me.
What do you mean, unimportant? Calculating the exact scaling factor for my desktop environment to match the look on my old Thinkpad was urgent!
Avoud blue light. Make your phone black and white when you should be sleeping.
Yeah same. I’m AuDHD so I’m just constantly ruminating. CBD and ASMR videos help.
Yeah i WISH i could control when i sleep, but I have lifelong serious problems falling asleep. I’ve tried all the things people talk about - counting sheep, no screen right before bed, melatonin, meditation, exercise early in the day, etc etc. Some of them help somewhat sometimes, but so far there’s no fix. Actually there was one thing that totally fixed it, which was taking zoloft. Taking it at noon everyday completely fixed my lifelong sleeping problems even though it did little to help the depression i had back then. Now that i say it, i think i should start taking it again just because it fixed my sleep so completely.

Shout-out to all my homies who are tired all day, avoid screens before bed, read for a bit, journal, do mindful meditation, and take melatonin, but nonetheless lie in bed staring at their eyelids for 2 hours before slipping into a kind of restless unconsciousness that’s too long and groggy to be a nap but too short to be a refreshing night of sleep.
I invested in my sleep this year. Bought a white noise machine, comfy percal cotton sheets, ear plugs, eye mask, mouth tape, try to go running consistently, implemented basic sleep hygiene stuff like no phone in the room, and… I still have trouble. I went on a 50km bike ride over the weekend and still had trouble. But… the reality is that it has gotten better on average after implementing all of this and fuck it, I’ll take it.
I drink a cup of coffee only once a day. It’s extra strong though. Maybe that has something to do with it. But I really love that one strong ass coffee in the morning.
Mouth tape? Is this like a sleep apnea home remedy or something? I’m now worried I’m sleeping wrong.
And what about the ass-coffee?
Keeps me up at night lol
All I know is that I would often wake up with a dry mouth and that I was definitely breathing through it all night.
Yes
This is truly the question of all time
Anyone else like food when they’re extremely hungry?
Me too! My bed feels SO much more comfy when I’m really tired
No I prefer to fall asleep mid morning when I’m awake and alert after two coffees
What episode is this from?
No, I’m really bad at falling asleep at that point. I’m much better at falling asleep when I’m sorta awake and still have things I need to do before I fall asleep.
No.
Ok hear me out. I’ll have a nap and be so glad to fall asleep. But then I get to bed and I’m like nahhhhh I just keep reading or playing this game.
I gotta get better at sleep hygiene 😅
Trick question?
As someone who slept 13.5 hours last night. Yes, the trick is to always be extremely exhausted!
