but I read that as genuine concern, as you didn’t know why I didn’t sleep much.
Trying to get more sleep today, but either people keep me from sleeping (being loud outside, being my boss and thinking I need to work) or my organism decides to pump out cortisol or adrenaline and that keeps me awake.
Oh damn I’m sorry to hear about that, hoping things get better for you
idk if this helps but when there’s too much noise outside or too much stress inside I like to put on the radio quietly to drown it out, there’s something about being tuned into static-laden local broadcasts that makes me feel less lonely and more connected, not caught in the crazy buzz of the global internet but also not wallowing away by myself. It’s very comforting for me.
The radio is a good idea but I end up being interested by what’s played or said in the radio and want to stay awake. I sometimes use white noise which works better for me, but is also pretty exhausting physically.
Having foam earplugs also really helps against the noise. Doesn’t help when it’s super warm and you wake up from that or when they fall out though, lol.
And my inner clock seems to have been set to 6:50 am because that’s when I need to get up to go to work. If I’d sleep much longer on weekends, I would feel bad throughout the week because then my inner clock would be set to 9am but I still needed to get up at 7.
It will get better, I’m sure. Didn’t want to make such a huge fuzz about it, just needed to satisfy the sidebar rule :D
thanks, I’m cured (:

That’s actually how the ingame music and ambience of Death Stranding made me feel! I know what you mean :)
