I have HORRIBLE vision and a nearly ten year old pair of glasses that are scratched to hell. That may be a contributing factor, but things like glasses are just too expensive without insurance with my script. I want restorative eye surgery, but that is for rich folk; A pipe dream.

I've slept about half as much as anybody around me that I've observed in my life. I've watched many sunsets create quiet and slumber and sunrises stir life awake. Recently it hasn't been as bad, but now it seems to be back with a vengeance. Quoting: eyeDR3 I have slept this week a total of around 18 hours. I was cleaning the entire house for days all the while i was trying to accomplish projects. This threw off my circadian rhythm yet again, and at 1:30 am, I'm jiving in bed like I'm hopped up on something. There's something that keeps me awake at night... More often than not. I no longer envy the sleeper, i understand they are blessed and lucky. This is lifes lesson to me; to be resilient to pain and fatigue. Venus has been astonishing at sunset, and the sunrise is coming earlier and earlier. I work 3 days a week, I love being awake at night, because of silence. Nobody and nothing bothers or distracts me. I love reading Bible at night, or spread Gods message to everyone. I love sunrise, most beautiful thing out there. And colors are amazing. Try to go to parks or nature, as far as possible from human noises. |

I’ve been hunkered down in restore mode for a decade now. Enjoying the long hibernation but also looking forward to the next phase. There are morning people, early birds, and night people, night owls. The early bird winds down and falls asleep around 10 the latest and gets up at 5-6am, while the night owl may not go to bed until the early bird wakes. It's a really weird paradigm, but i have known a few people on the night owl side as well. Some of my reasoning is that there is very little to no influence of personality, communication or noise, rather it is calm and free for thought and activity. The world gets tired and wanes in a small bout of death. The early bird dies first while the night owl mourns through the night and into morning, at some point he falls to rest. Right now i lay in bed on the other side of about 5 hours of sleep, eyes watering beggimg me to shut them again. The early birds of the house have made coffee and are probably wondering why I'm not up yet. Two groups that may never understand one another, a given in our system of duality. I tell these people... You must be resilient to what you've always taken for granted, like constant restful sleep, food, shelter, warmth/cool... If/when society collapses, you can't expect to lay your head down at 10 pm the latest every night. It's funny how the regular sleeper is irritable after losing only hours of sleep. My most emotional and compassionate self came to be after much pain, suffering and lack of sleep. :memorybanner: |

I love sunrise, but with sunrise comes human noises. My brain works much better at night. God bless you and your life This is exactly it. The light is almost too bright at times, and the level of energy the morning people produce, especially in sounds, is disturbing to me. It starts with the smallest glimmer of light, then the birds start chirping. Car doors slam, loud mechanical engines fire. Horns honk, mufflers scream, tires screech, and soon, you can't even hear the sweet birdsong. Hypersensitivity has always been a thing, but there are others who have it much worse than i as well and that breaks my heart. We all just really need to polite and quiet. When you walk through life, are you leaving more than just prints in the sand? Don't leave messes for others, and consider differences, especially in sleep. As a night owl, I'm very quiet for the early bird, but are they as quiet for me in the morning? Of course not! That doesn't stop me from being considerate. They simply don't understand because their energy is guided by the sun where mine seems to be the moon. I am cancerian male after all lol Thank you all for joining! Guess what woke me out of much needed rem? The early birds. :memorybanner: |

I work a service based industry. I have to do all the books, taxes, advertisement, design, pricing, estimates, face to face with customers... There's been funny experiences, but when people find out of the insomnia they understand a little better why i may seem like i have aspergers/autism. I've been asked. Do i? No clue. You do a lot in your job. That is very stressful. Upper management types could never do all that you do and they do not understand the stress levels. They just slave people. I used to live my life on a hamster wheel, too. And occasionally I would snap. I was always very resentful about the amount of work I was expected to juggle. It made me very angry. I am so glad to be retired now. I hated working! |

I’ve been hunkered down in restore mode for a decade now. Enjoying the long hibernation but also looking forward to the next phase. There are morning people, early birds, and night people, night owls. The early bird winds down and falls asleep around 10 the latest and gets up at 5-6am, while the night owl may not go to bed until the early bird wakes. It's a really weird paradigm, but i have known a few people on the night owl side as well. Some of my reasoning is that there is very little to no influence of personality, communication or noise, rather it is calm and free for thought and activity. The world gets tired and wanes in a small bout of death. The early bird dies first while the night owl mourns through the night and into morning, at some point he falls to rest. Right now i lay in bed on the other side of about 5 hours of sleep, eyes watering beggimg me to shut them again. The early birds of the house have made coffee and are probably wondering why I'm not up yet. Two groups that may never understand one another, a given in our system of duality. I tell these people... You must be resilient to what you've always taken for granted, like constant restful sleep, food, shelter, warmth/cool... If/when society collapses, you can't expect to lay your head down at 10 pm the latest every night. It's funny how the regular sleeper is irritable after losing only hours of sleep. My most emotional and compassionate self came to be after much pain, suffering and lack of sleep. Nailed it! Makes me think of the Pink Floyd song "Not Now John." Not now John, we've gotta get on with these! :memorybanner: |
