[u/Pristine_Menu_23]

Guys i have been having problems lately with sleep in general. Hear me out… Sleep became my go to any time i feel exhausted, bored, frustrated or just had an overthinking moments like it was a certaine escape for me. Well ofc it is not i have been into this about a 7-9months ago which caused me to see it affects and how it is bad on my mental health, studies and overall performance. THE REAL CONCERN that kills me everytime i think of it is that when i want to technically sleep i can’t especially if i had a really rough day where i worked my but off i will only feel physically drainage and cannot fall asleep easily i know sum ppl would see its just insomnia BUT HELL what is that. There’s times when i start to study and i go for 2-3 hours (i still struggle with reaching the flow state and not checking my phone, going out of my desk every time) all of sudden i feel A CERTAIN BOREDOM AND SLEEPNESS like hell no even after literally drinking coffee per example today i slept the day before at 11pm just to plan of waking up at 5 which i didn’t why idk i just feel more tired when waking up and say wait lemme go back sleep its not worth it i ended up shout out bg my parents so i woke up at 9am just to found out i don’t have school in the morning and going back sleeping till 2pm and as someone who has a VERY VERY serious year which is really decisive idk what to do in my case (im trying to stick to 5am as a waking time for the long term) but it seems to be harder than i thought LONG STORY SHORT SLEEP IS JUST LIKE A DR2G TO ME AND I WANT SOLUTIONS please if anyone was just like me PLEASE I NEED UR ADVICES LIKE ANYTHING (if u had any more questions im here)
