    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.

    Hyperfixation on random topics. The other day I was so invested in the history of mobile phones that I stayed up until 2:30am by accident while researching useless info.

    The night is beautiful - I wanna look at it, not sleep through it!
    There’s a 30 minutes of waiting after eating supper before I brush my teeth and go to bed.

    My brain ignites right before I’m supposed to sleep…it decides to ponder not only existence but nit-pick every choice I’ve made that day

      Recognizable.

      My brain hits it’s creative peak hours when laying down in bed in a dark room. It’s like rush hour on a busy road.

      That’s very true, but there’s something so blissful about those rare days I go to bed and wake up at like 2am and just kind of consciously drift in and out of a very light sleep for 5 hours. Just awake enough to think and relax, but not enough to stress over the upcoming day and responsibilities.

    The fact that I’d just stare at the ceiling till at least 23:00 EVEN THOUGH I WAKE UP AT 4:00 just to be tired the whole day as usual until the sudden energy boost around 18:00.

    What’s the point of school starting at 7am?
    The first class looks like this: Students sleeping on tables, teachers trying to not do the same, the only active group of people is the line at the coffee vending machine.
    And the productivity remains greatly reduced for rest of the day.

    1½ years ago it used to be 7:50. Apparently too late.
    Meanwhile I recently seen a study that even 8:30 might be too early, and giving a new recommendation of 10am.

    But it could be worse. I’ve heard from someone on Reddit that they start at 6am. What the fuck…
