Understandable. You'll get there :).
I have no idea how neurotypicals think though.
I heard the other day that some people goto bed, get in, close their eyes, and just... go to sleep?? What the fuck is that???
I do that. Didn't when I was younger. But as I am content and get older, easy. I struggle to get off games/Lemmy and allow my head to hit the pillow.
How i envy you lmao
Literally just woke up from a bit of a nightmare, 3 hrs of sleep! Thats more than normal ๐๐
Oof, that sounds rough. Sorry to hear about that. Hope you work through those things grinding you down. You'll get there. You're worthy and deserve to be happy.
Hey thanks so much! The world has done its level best to grind me down, but im still here. And i plan on continuing to be here, so i can help people not have to go throughh similar stuff, atleast not alone โค๏ธ
I know that doesnt sound like alot of time for self care, but (without getting into too much of my past) if what has happened so far hasnt made me give up, nothing will!
I just hope to pass on a little of that energy to others! Also nightmares are a somewhat regular thing for me especially if i take any type of nighttime medicine, which is why i dont. I get REALLY vivid nightmares, especially on that stuff, it just happens, and idk why. But its fine, just takes like 20 minutes after waking to feel ok
