Do you get enough sleep? If not, why not?

I can naturally on certain occasions. However, I usually have trouble sleeping (I won’t call it in insomnia. It’s much more complex than that.) But my pills that help me with lack of sleep. Unfortunately these pills have me sleeping 12 hours, instead of a healthy 8 hours. I hate to say so. I’m just tired.

Probably like 6 or 5 hours. i go to bed at 3 am and wake up at 8.

I cant bring myself to go to bed. I feel like I always have to stay up long. even if I don't use any electronic devices, i find a way to stay awake

nope but then again I have a legitimate excuse - I have a baby!!! lol

mostly yeah. before 1 am i have been in bed in the dark for atleast half an hour listening to music. And i never wake before 8:30

My sleep routine is fked up from past couple of months, i go to sleep at like 5am

I've never been one to fall asleep and stay asleep, but recently, I've been waking constantly for no reason. I'm in bed for about 9 hours, but who knows how much sleep I'm actually getting.

Gosh I hope you find a healthy balance, I can't imagine how draining that must be. Do you do work that makes normal sleep difficult?

Thankfully, I have recently had a good night’s sleep. No, I don’t work any crazy schedules. When I’m unemployed it makes me sleep more. However I am forced to work in retail for the time being.

Mostly it was cause I worked out and went on the treadmill to late (I used to work late night shifts in the kitchen at a restaurant and had to travel from the airport to my apartment which was 2 hours away. So I didn't actually get off the bus till 11pm, didn't get to my apartment till 12am on good days (don't even ask about the -30 winter days lol), so I'm currently struggling a lot adapting my schedule to the day because of those night shifts. So Long story short, I would begin working out and started running at the centre in my condo when I got home late, aka more energy = bad ability to sleep. I'm slowly getting out of this habit, but with winter and insomina its pretty hard.

Now however since my chef quit and I'm doing other stuff this 2024, it's mostly if I remember to take my sleep medication 😅

not right now I dont I have diaphram issues which is causing my right lung to collapse on top of that I'm sick. Can't sleep cause I can't breathe well and I'm coughing.

Hope you're okay, tea always helps me and, do you humidifier by chance? I wonder if that would help it helps me if I can't breathe. (I have issues with my lungs since I was a baby, my nose struggles with these issues a lot, which is why I thought of it). 🖤

It'll be okay in the end, you got this! 💪🏻

I do

I need good hours of sleep because I hate some coworkers

Living with them while asleep would be worse than a nightmare
