Swap coffee and energy drinks. Energy drinks are def the most braindead of the bunch—I know, I used to buy them.

Also where is the “100mg adderall” option?

The last one is plain cheating

[-] Cheems@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

I get 8 hours of sleep almost every night. I can tell you I don't feel well rested any day

[-] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

I get between 7-12h a day. I still don't feel restet.

[-] IndefiniteBen@leminal.space 15 points 1 year ago

Consistency and quality of sleep are also important factors, but so is your diet and the times you eat.

Feeling well rested after a night of sleep requires much more than "8 hours sleep".

Can't tell you the amount of times someone has acted astonished when I tell them I drink coffee because I genuinely like it—i just drink it in the morning because if I drank it later it'd keep me awake.

A lot of people drink it purely to stay awake and I do not get that. Get some caffeine pills or something.

[-] anarchy79@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I don't take pills unless I get them from a vetted dealer.

I'm starting to think it's physically impossible to get enough sleep to where your not tired when you wake up.

[-] monotiller@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

I have a sleep tracker and it keeps saying, "girl, you're the best at sleeping, getting the 8 hours, getting the REM, going to bed and waking up at consistent times, blood oxygen maybe a little lower than usual but if there was a sleep competition you'd easily be top 100!"

But yet I still feel like death in the morning

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Wait, what's this about 90% chocolate? I like chocolate.

[-] name_NULL111653@pawb.social 16 points 1 year ago

Dark chocolate has some caffeine, but if you're used to coffee don't expect it to do much. 90% at least if you want any effect. I just enjoy it for the cocoa, never really notice the caffeine bc I'm used to a big rush from coffee.

There aren't enough hours of sleep for me to go to uni for 8 hours, then go to work for 8 hours and not feel like a mess.

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I see teenagers drinking energy drinks and I'm always thinking marketing really works on teenagers. Because those are the only people drinking that shit and they are also trying to appear "cool". So easy targets for marketing.

[-] SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is mostly accurate. (Except for the fact that coffee and energy drinks need to be switched.) I only need to drink coffee in the morning if I can't sleep properly. On a regular day, I only drink some in the afternoon, and thats too only because I just like drinking coffee.

I used to think that I was just great at finding ways to get enough sleep while staying up late on the weekend.

Now that I have an infant, though...

Funny enough, half the reason I'm not getting enough sleep anymore is just so I can have some time to myself.

I can't believe no one's mentioned tea. I still drink coffee, but I've replaced my second cup of the day with a pot of green tea, and I'm really into it! For one, it lasts longer than a cup of coffee. And it's warming in the cold months, and refreshing in the hot months.

My ADHD methodology involves getting good sleep (a lifelong challenge that took me more than thirty years to figure itself) followed by huge amounts of caffeine as zero calorie energy drinks to take the place of prescription stimulants. I also have low blood pressure. So I'm like a whole new person once I've eaten and medicated, but I need a long time to wake up and come around to my full performance level.
