That yellow sweater was making her drowsy.
It could be the blue shirt keeping her awake. In any case, switching is recommended
It’s thick and warm. That’s why.
I’d find it hard to get any good night’s rest when 4 rambunctious teenagers want to hangout in your living room, watch tv, and order pizza all night.
Only if you let them
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it ☑
I finally listened to what my body was trying to tell me and got a 3rd shift job.
Why is my hair so long in these portrayals?
I swear I’m nocturnal
I am asleep a 21:00 like clockwork, so WHY IN THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK AM I WIDE AWAKE AT 23:00!!! Fuck you brain, you stupid loud, anxiety riddled bitch
How did you get this picture of me every fucking day since reaching adulthood?
Literally me right now.
It feels like I spend 15 hours waking up.

Me when I wake up at 2AM vs me when I have to wake up at 6AM
every. single. day. 😫
Then there is me who is the first 3 panels 24 hours a day since I was 13, tired for decades getting 8-9 hours of sleep 😅 at least insomnia is rare. I don’t wish insomnia on almost anyone. The 4-5 times I had it were the most frustrating hours…
I have insomnia due to bi-polar. This couldn’t be more true. It took many years to learn how to manage it.
Have you tried reversing the polarity?
And bouncing it off the main deflector dish?
That’s the one I use to steam grated zucchini, right?
Let’s just wait for the earth to do it for him.
what did you learn?? there’s a bunch of us up waiting for an answer
I came to recognize certain ticks that indicate that I’m in a manic state. For example, I randomly make a sound popping my tongue on the roof of my mouth. I have a different level of nervous energy that expresses through bouncing my foot or similar movement (different from what happens otherwise; I can feel it more than I can explain it). I have a more rapid delivery of speech. Also, it feels really good when I’m manic. I started to recognize mania and get excited for extreme productivity before the horrible burnout a few times before I was willing to actively suppress it. Oh, and racing thoughts.
There are other flags, I can’t recall them. There’s a medication that helps knock me down and I haven’t had a full-blown manic episode in years. I had to go through a bunch of manic episodes before I could identify the symptoms. I literally thought I’d never be able to control it and became extremely depressed. If you’re going through the same, please know that you can learn to manage your condition with time and lead a “normal” life.
Thank you for sharing! I’m not bipolar but experience sleep problems, could be insomnia level but similarly learned to manage my brain activity and also follow a billion sleep rules. It’s much much better but still have episodes of not being able to sleep for a few hours.
I’m happy to hear you found things that are working for you, keep taking care 💌
Things like having a well-regulated sleep schedule isn’t a failsafe. I woke up at 4am both nights that my partner took a roadtrip with visiting family. And sometimes you just have a rough couple of nights.
