Yeh totally works, I mean, I'm sitting at my desk at work shaking and I can hardly read the screen as random words go variously in and out of focus and despite being hair trigger alert I'm also exhausted and the verge falling face down unconscious on my keyboard and I have to read every email 10 times over before actually understanding it and then somehow still respond in a way that doesn't quite make total sense. But technically, I'm awake and I'm physically here and nobody can say otherwise.
Hey. It's me. I'm in this comment.
Oh god. That was me last week. Waking up to "think about things" at 3am, staying awake until six and waking up at eight. I have no tolerance for days like this, I felt like absolute shit.
One coffee? No.
A lot of coffee? Yes.
Haha, joke is on you, that just makes me sleep even less.
Coffee isn't nearly enough to overcome a poor sleep schedule. That's why I'm an espresso guy.
I go to bed at 11pm as an adult because I like to sleep
I tried that for years but I can't fall asleep that early. I wish I could because I also love a good night's sleep but it just won't happen unless I've gone 2 nights with 4 or less hours per night and worked both days. Then I'll sleep at 7pm right after dinner. There sadly is no in-between
Reading a book always works for me
Thanks for the suggestion but I struggle with reading. I can't keep my attention on it and I have to reread each sentence multiple times before I get what it says. Which is more frustrating than relaxing. But it is a bit weird as I can read articles and messages just fine.
That's fine. Let the text tire your eyes and you'd sleep soundly.
I've quit drinking coffee two weeks ago. I felt really numb for 8 days, and then I started to just feel normal again. Before I drank way too much coffee. Now I don't know what to do, if I want to drink a little bit of tea every day or if I want to use caffeine just on an occasional basis trying to avoid any dependency. For now I'll stick to 0 caffeine for a little longer and see how I feel. But I'd be curious to know other peoples experiences or advice.
I stared at this way too long wondering what a Cheesy Poof on the sidewalk had to do with coffee.
In my defense, I'm scrolling before going to sleep and my morning coffee has long since worn off.
But can you also stand up when you want? Who's your daddy now?
