So fucking true, a lot people take so much pride in not getting enough sleep it is scary, and then they actually start judging if you sleep more than 6 hours

I lean into it. "Oh you only slept for 20 mins? I feel great, I got a full 8 hours. I don't even drink caffeine because I sleep so well".
You drink coffee because you feel tired without it.
I drink coffee because I love the taste.
We are not the same.
I got 9 hours of sleep last night
i got 25
This is the first time I've been awake in my entire life.
I've never been awake, I'm reading this all by astrally projecting from my dreams. Nevermind how I'm writing anything.
Sleeping on that trans-Pacific flight does wonders for catching up on that sleep debt.
It's that grind-set mindset, people think not sleeping is a sign of prosperity, but in reality it's strongly linked with early dementia.
Literally the capitalist mindset. Go to sleep late and wake up early, so you have more time to work ("grind" or "hustle"). Every day I hate capitalism more and more
As someone with insomnia problems that have been reoccurring throughout my life, that was a terrifying read thank you.
This, same with "I had a tough day" and "my day was worse" type comments. Just let me vent then I'll listen about your day.
Is it more or less unhealthy when I lie about my lack of sleep to shut people up?
I'd say that's still unhealthy because it helps perpetuate the myth that less sleep is a thing to admire. Maybe instead we should start bragging about how much sleep we are getting. As a dad of an 18 month old, I already regularly brag about that to my coworkers who also have little kids.
Yeah I'm with you on this one. Getting enough sleep should be something we thrive for.
I just fucking hate sleeping. 😅
Wut
I really, genuinely, hate sleeping. To me, it is such a waste of time that I could be learning something new or doing something productive!
I hate sleeping because I know all that's waiting for me tomorrow is more work.
and the existential crises!
doing something productive
What do you produce?
Nothing. I’m too busy sleeping.
Ah yeah, the misery olimpics you can't say shit because somehow their life is worse.
I get -1 hours of sleep a night. I'm awake and stealing your dreams.
OMG That was you that lurked my nightmares last night?!
You were a good kisser NGL
What else am i supposed to do? Sleep and fail at literally everything i am doing and that's of any worth in my life just because i don't want to be tired the next day?
Hopefully the one hour sleeper is empathizing, and just letting them know they understand as they only slept an hour but can't articulate it (to save energy).
Same, been a doosey.
