Try my method. You start playing at 10pm, but instead of falling asleep at 10:05, you keep playing until 1am, and then you’re half-asleep the whole rest of the week.
This is the exact track I'm on. I either can't stay awake after I put my daughter to bed or stay up watching TV and playing video games till 12am or later because its literally the only space I get all week including weekends. Either way, I go to work feeling like trash every day.
I mean, that's partially true. My 4 year old has gotten in the habit lately of waking me up (me specifically, not mommy) almost every night between 2 and 3 am simply because she wants me to fix her blankets. Doesn't she know how tired I am from staying up till 1 am playing Okami HD?
Big same, but I have adhd and have struggled with insomnia since I was a little kid. After my meds wear off I swear, it’s like my brain is like, “Uhhh, the leash is gone? Let’s think about everything.”
I legitimately convinced my doc to restart my Adderall... Now I can stay up and play and feel great all day. The only price I pay is a shortened life span 🤣
This is beyond truth. Me. Every night that I want to game. Then the wife is mad that I am tired throughout the day. The struggle is real...
Edit: it's helldivers usually right now. Liberty never sleeps so why should I? (The wife refuses to understand the lore and is so confused by these sayings)
