Nothing gets between me and the best part of the day.
You are the master of your will!
It cuts into the one part of the day i have to myselff
the factory must grow
A 2.5 year old and an 8 month old.
I’m typing this while waiting for my 2.9month old to fall asleep (she was up extra late today) Then it’s time to get her 12 year old brother to bed. I can hear their mom wrangling the 9 and 10 year old brothers through the evening routine right now.
It gets better around 5-7y.
Good luck and sleep whenever you can!
Omg, I can relate! Wish you a happy distraction free sleep
Video games, because I don’t have time to play during the day.

Yep. I could be reading a book and intending to finish the chapter I’m on and suddenly it’s 4 am and I’ve read 6 more chapters and about 100 pages to go so I might as well finish it. Also applies to watching a show or playing a game.
I’ve studied for years and got a well paying job, I cannot just switch to something else without cutting my pay in half. But my work isn’t enjoyable, it outright sucks on most days. Going to bed early surrenders the only time of the day I can be happy and skips right to work again.

And malice!
And my AXE!
Late evening is the time where my mind works best.
But at what cost?
None. As a student I can sleep as long as I want c:
Not wanting to go to bed early.
Wanting to have a life as an adult after our kid goes to bed.
I don’t want to die.
What if I die in my sleep.
What if the house catches fire and I can’t escape in time because I was asleep.
There are so many other things I could be doing.
I don’t have enough life left.
What if I miss something important or cool.
What if there’s a burglar when I’m asleep and it goes south and they murder me.
What if I have an aneurysm in my sleep.
What if I have a stroke in my sleep.
What if I have a heart attack in my sleep.
What if there’s a gas leak and the house explodes while I’m asleep.
What if there’s a CO leak and I just asphyxiate.
What if I just never wake up for no discernible reason.
I wanna play more video games.
I wanna browse the internet more.
I don’t want to have the bad thoughts come back like they always do when I try to sleep.
Ah yes, the “what if I fall asleep and X happens, I should stay awake” anxiety. Fighting the inevitable…
I’ve dealt with that all my life. Recently it got so bad that I was waking myself up in the middle of the night with these thoughts. I just got a prescription for lorazepam and it has helped more than anything I’ve tried. I hate sleeping pills because they give me a hungover feeling in the morning. This one just shuts down the anxiety so I can sleep naturally.

The fact it’s the only time of day i can hear my thoughts without needing to think about studying; or if the situation is dire, because i’m studying
If I go to bed early, I have to get up and pee at some point during the night. And since it’s way too cold, I’ll usually lie awake for half and hour before I can actually get myself to leave the bed.
