Chit-Chat: it's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood

[Corrin]

I haven't slept in over 24 hours, myself

 

[Sawsbuck]

I average around 3-4 hrs of sleep on weekdays and have never felt tired
Usually go to bed at 2 am and wake up at quarter to 7
No coffee or caffeine either

 

[Limey-chan]

I'm hopeless on anything below 6 (though depending on who you ask i'm equally as hopeless on more than 6 lol), today it's amplified because man flu :(

 

[Zeffy]

i go to sleep at around 5-6am and wakeup at around noon. on the bright side, at least i'm getting 6 hours of sleep! back when i was still in uni i only slept for 3-4 hours almost every weekday

 

[string555]

Apart from waking up multiple times a night, I typically get good sleep. The exception is when I'm working on a program, and I encounter a problem that I can't figure out right away, in which case no sleep for me. :P

I did go through a weird fit of insomnia when I was a young teenager, I had only slept about 2 hours in one week. To this day, I still don't understand what caused that. :/

 

[Corrin]

I had a good sleep last night! Slept a good 14 hours

14 whut
I wake 6AM for work every day and it always makes me so miserable like. I'd wake up groggy and go on in my head about how I'm going to quit my job, etc.. then when I'm out and get to work I feel much better lol.

Are you getting a full 8 hours of sleep or nah?

nooope
I go to bed around 11pm.. can't sleep any earlier, since I already have so little free time and want to enjoy whatever of it I have. but even if I got 8+ I'd still wake up groggy, especially when it's still dark out, I know that from experience =x I'm not meant to be awake so early. Waking up before 9AM has always been hard.

Hahaha trust me, I understand the free time thing (: Do you have caffeine (i.e coffee) anytime in the afternoon, or have any electronics that you screw around with before going to sleep?

 

[Sheep]

I don't drink coffee or have anything with caffeine really, and some nights I'd tinker on my phone for a few minutes before bed.. but that's it honestly. I feel like I just gotta get used to the fact that waking up early is hella hard for me ;.;/ and yeah what is free time lately tbh

Caffeine doesn't do anything for me other than pain relief. I once had a Coke an hour or so before bed and still fell asleep easily and slept soundly.

I did some research awhile back on this cause I struggled with waking up groggy all the time, and it's all centered around melatonin production. Basically you want to avoid caffeine after like 2PM in the afternoon to cleanse your body of it, as well as avoid electronics at least am hour before you go to bed. Both inhibit your production of the hormone. Eating right and exercising also have profound effects - has done wonders for me at the very least

My mother takes melatonin pills but I just prefer a natural sleep

Sometimes if I'm feeling really anxious I'd take benadryl to help make me sleepy but yeah. natural sleep is best sleep <3 In regards to anxiety I've started taking other things, so I largely moved away from the benadryl in general.

today sucked ass

Yeahh, you're absolutely right. But man it's so hard to find the energy to exercise consistently nowadays. Even though I have an elliptical in the living room aaaAAA /=

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you tell me once that you have like, dumbbbbbb long commutes too? Cause I'm sure that blows in terms of keeping up energy levels as well /:
