A truly herculean effort

Nah, I'm in my 30s and see sleeping as a chore. ADHD brain also makes it really difficult to fall asleep.

[-] yum_burnt_toast@reddthat.com 9 points 7 months ago

im almost 40 and my trick is to not try to fall asleep because if i try i end up staying awake longer due to frustration. i just watch youtube trombone tutorials until i pass out.

[-] DaCrazyJamez@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 months ago

A medically irresponsible quantity of sleeping pills and whiskey can solve that problem!

[-] crusty@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago

Probably shouldn't mix those

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago

This was a struggle for me at first too.

Until I realized that trying not to think of anything so I can sleep, is thinking about something.

The paradox of "trying" to sleep. The harder you try, the less you sleep.

[-] OhTheMoose@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

I'm 30, but I have the same problem and do the exact same thing. I also take a 10mg melatonin capsule at 7:30-8:00 every night

[-] Muffi@programming.dev 2 points 7 months ago

Same. I've got too many awesome projects that I enjoy working on. Sleep is boring.

[-] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 7 months ago

Fuck yeah, sleep is awesome. Know what's better than sleep? Restful sleep.

~~Only two suicide dreams this night~~

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 10 points 7 months ago

You okay bro? I don't know what to say, but at the very least, I can listen.

[-] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 7 months ago

My suicide dreams were almost all me trying to drown myself. I'd then discover that I could breathe underwater and get excited about the discovery and it would disrupt the depression for the rest of the dream

“20 and older?” Dude I was foregoing sleep in favor of doing tons of shit well into my mid-20s.

[-] lessthanluigi@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I got a new mattress. Really makes a difference in quality of sleep/enjoyment of sleep.

EDIT: Taking one of those mattress quizzes helped a lot. Probably not perfect, but better than just getting a mattress from a ad or youtube sponsor.

They can be so damned expensive, I'm beyond overdue for one (mine is kind collapsing in the middle).

[-] lessthanluigi@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Yea, that is the main issue, pricing. Mine was like 1.5k, but worth it as well.

[-] Alk@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Making all of your bill payments a month in advance

[-] TootSweet@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Damn. I need to increase the witholding amount on my W-4.

[-] myusernameis@lemmy.ca 7 points 7 months ago

I've been sober for 6 months.

[-] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago

high five ヽ( ゚Д゚)人(゚Д゚ )ノ

[-] muggedTassi@feddit.de 6 points 7 months ago

hell yeah (I'm reading this sleep deprived on 6ish h of sleep and I won't be able to sleep for another 3h unless I wanna risk missing my train and I would love a bed rn)

Hell yeah I've been staying up too late but still have to get to early so this is like my current fantasy.

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 2 points 7 months ago

I am gassy.

[-] germanatlas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 7 months ago

Unironically yes

[-] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 2 points 7 months ago

I poop in a toilet.

[-] Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 7 months ago
