Not your fault if your internal clock wants to be awake at a different range, yet you are forced to use another.

This may be the case for some people, but way more people just have shitty sleep hygiene habits

[–] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

That's what I was thinking, like my sleep is shit but I know it's my fault because I hop into bed and proceed to cycle between youtube shorts, Lemmy and d&d sourcebooks on my bright-ass phone for hours. Bonus points for a blue light filter cranked all the way up so I feel better about giving my future self dementia due to sleep deprevation

You might call that socially constructed DSPD.

Just set a recurrent alarm so you don't have to see that popup

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I actually want to see a popup like this, with the picture. Something even more horrifying for those under 4 hour nights. Like those lung cancer pictures on ciggys. Perhaps it could help mould my behavior.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 6 points 8 months ago

It wouldn't help. It just makes you super stressed and have shit quality sleep in those short hours. Don't ask me why I know.

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 15 points 8 months ago

I'm not trying to shame you or anything OP, but it seems quite possible that you saw that message, then decided it would be funny to post, then created it and posted it before falling asleep.

Because personally I would think of this joke, and if I didn't immediately post it, I would forget about it by morning and the post would never happen.

5 hours and 9 minutes, I'm sleeping extra tonight!

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 12 points 8 months ago

4 1/2 hours is about what I do now that I fixed my sleep. At my worst I was doing about 90 minutes. At 90 minutes of light sleep you slowly start to lose your mind. I became paranoid and suicidal. 2/10, would not recommend.

5 ml of Benadryl 1 hour before bed might knock you out?

Edit: My comment was not all that well thought out. I just recently observed my kid sleep instantly once the cough medicine kicked in. As others have pointed out, don't use it consistently, could cause dementia and is super dangerous in high doses.

Do drugs responsibly kids!

Have fun with the dementia

Yeah this is really scary, but people get desperate when they can't sleep properly for weeks, and it's like $200 just to set foot inside the clinic to get some actual help

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 8 points 8 months ago

Don't use benadryl consistently.

[–] ComradePorkRoll@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah the dementia is scary but so is the hat man. You don't want to mess with the hat man.

[–] Zoutpeper@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

I'm in this picture and don't like this

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago

All the damned time.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Split sleep schedule kings don't have this issue. 4 hours at night and two after work. That's all you need.

[–] hex@programming.dev 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Uhhh i think you need more than 6 in total no?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 4 points 8 months ago

If you use your brain day to day then you probably need more than 6.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago
