ohhgghh someone fucking called me i jate thiz ztupid jiob

[tubbypeddle]

Hi! I really like your writing, I was wondering how would part 5 characters react to a y/n with an uberman sleep schedule. personally, I only do it during summer.

hii!! thank you so much for the compliment, what!!!! you're so sweet 🫂

also, an uberman sleep schedule!! I had no idea what that was, I had to search it up! how interesting!!

For those who don't know, from what I found, an "uberman sleep schedule" is a form of polyphasic sleep where someone takes multiple 20 minute naps throughout the day, spaced approximately 4 hours apart. (Polyphasic sleep refers to a sleep schedule where you sleep more than twice in a single day)

for now, i'm only going to do the bucci gang, but if you want la Squadra too, just send in another ask! i'll be happy to 🫂 also, I apologize for the wait 😭 I got a little caught up with personal things, I didn't mean to put this off (I actually feel so bad it's not even funny)

(author's note: no smut in this one <33, also for underage characters it isn't exactly an "x reader" like what will be suggested for the canon adult characters, since I don't feel comfortable with that, but I hope you enjoy it anyway)

Giorno Giovanna

He's a little shocked by how easy you find sleep, and a little envious honestly

Ever since he was a child, he found it hard to fall asleep.

So the fact that you can just lie down for a nap and actually take a nap

He's a little jealous, not that you'll ever know. he's a master at hiding his feelings behind a straight face. Not jealous enough to do anything,

It's amusing to him, to find you in many places around Passione headquarters taking your little naps

sometimes, if he feels comfortable enough with you, he'll leave you little presents while you nap

just small things, like a little frog companion, or a cool rock he found with a note wishing you well

Bruno Bucciarati

He finds it endearing how strict you are with your schedule, if you're strict with it. You have a timer that you set before you sleep, and you wake up to it, always.

It's a little impressive, honestly

Bruno isn't one to have a very strict sleep schedule like yours is, he can't afford to.

So when you can just do that, it's adorable honestly.

plenty of little catnaps throughout the day

when he has time, you might be able to convince him to join you in a quick nap, though it might be a little difficult. it's hard enough for him to get to sleep at night without a nap in the middle of the day ruining his sleep schedule.

but when he does cave into your request, it's some of the most peaceful sleep he's ever had in his life.

Leone Abbacchio

he understands the appeal of taking cat naps throughout the day, and if his schedule allows for it, he'd do it too

it's not hard to convince him to take a nap with you, he loves any excuse to shirk work, especially if it's with you (much to Bucciarati's annoyance)

though, taking these naps with you fucks up his actual sleep schedule, so he ends up staying up really late into the night

usually, this would irritate him to no end, but since it's you he's staying up for, he doesn't mind

(especially if it means he gets more naps with you the next day)

Narancia Ghirga

he might be a little confused about why you sleep so often, though this isn't ill-intentioned

he means well!

he's just...a little confused (when is he not, honestly)

there's so much to do in the day! so much fun to have! why do you sleep so often?

be prepared for when you're sleeping out in the open, though, because he has a bad habit of fiddling with you while you sleep

his language of affection is touch, so he likes fiddling with your hands, or your hair, or even just poking you while you sleep

if you're a light sleeper, it's best to watch out for sleeping around him

he might even draw on your face

Guido Mista

he's actually pretty chill, pretty laid back, even if he does poke fun at you a little bit for sleeping so often even if he does the same thing

you'll probably find him sleeping around his apartment before he finds you sleeping

and he openly encourages you to slip in beside him if you find him (he's a little stinky though /affectionate)

If he finds you sleeping first, though, he'll probably just slip in next to you (if you've given him the okay ahead of time)

or he'll sit beside you and read a magazine if he isn't sleepy

(he loves and appreciates nap dates and I will die on this hill)

Pannacotta Fugo

he probably wouldn't have much of an opinion or reaction, so sorry if you were looking for one from him

it's just something that you do, it's none of his business what your sleep schedule is like

the only thing you'd probably get out of him is worry

"why are you sleeping out here? This sofa is awful for your back. Sleep in your room."

Aggressive worrier, definitely

Trish Una

she probably thinks it's cute

naps are fun, she loves naps, but she won't indulge in them too often

she definitely worries that sleeping too often could ruin her skin (I don't know how it would, but it probably would) so she won't indulge you in a besties nap too often

she will offer to sit with you though, as you nap

she'd probably take it as an excuse to do skin care with you, or a chance to touch up her nails, or even just relax alongside you

IM SO SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG!! I GOT DISTRACTED WITH OTHER THINGS IN MY PERSONAL LIFE 😭

I HOPE YOU LIKE WHAT I GOT!! can u tell I didn't know what to write

[david-goldrock]

You voted for, so let me translate the entire poem

Let us talk about god About blind faith, and cold logic, and a lacking purpose A pale alternative to a pointless and alienated existence About the mantle and the lady and all that is familiar And the bitter truth of the thorn in the rose And the dangers of sugar and the cold reality Let us talk about god dsgnruwhurjehgtsbvalk

That is what I managed to write before the cat jumped on my keyboard Glanced at the words, glanced at me, glanced at the words And turned to lick its own ass

"Well, what's your opinion?" I asked it, for it is known cats do not tend to spare criticism If you wanna hear "Wow what a beautiful song" go and ask the dog For the truth, turn to a cat

Left the ass, glanced at me Glanced at the words, glanced at me His entirety is a Nietzsche's mustache The eyes of the abyss that looks back at you Uberkatze that will soon herald that god is dead (supercat, a reference to Nietzsche's "uberman") Opens his moth to talk, and thus spoke Zarathustra: "For someone who claims that god doesn't exist, you write about him a bunch, do you feel threatened?"

What? Threatened? From what? A flying spaghetti monster? No I just think that faith and god is a cool concept

It scoffs and responds: What do you fuck about? You dig (talk an excessive amount about something) And are an infidel And forces to confront And freeze in your place From the horror of the truth Because Darwinist monkeys Tried to trick To pile stones That cannot be lifted And cells from a fetus And a fossilized snail And big bangs And facts that most, as all Dwarven (become small, as dwarfs) On the banks of the everyday Of 7 billion Yearning souls From the heart of each land To the shore of each sea Go and tell all these That god doesn't exist

And then it hit me: The religification has come to me in my home! Because of course, a cat that once in Ancient Egypt was a god Now that were back to writing in emoji hieroglyphs, and the cat-worshiping gets a rejuvenation on all the walls of the internet Of course the cat will stand up to the side of the messianics, the darkened, the preachers and return-in-answerers (to return in an answer is a jewish idea, which I am unqualified to explain, but in this context it means to become religious) Well - Not in my house I won't be silent and I won't accept Religious compulsion from the mouth of a creature that licks its own ass

And it tells me: From the perspective of a cat Things are a bit different There is no Damocles' sword of time that is ticking Death approaches The end of the movie And in the meantime, we eat, and fuck Without doubting The world, ourselves By Allah Ya Allah You digged With all that messing around with "purpose" We start, we decay There's no one above No stairway to heaven Hell has no elevator

Well, exactly, so why search for imagined meaning? Why not settle for what there is - We were born for a short existence, kitty Let us fulfill it instead of casting the responsibility on some kind of creator There are better things to live by

Like what exactly?

Yes The tree is but a tree And the sea is but a sea But has anyone ever Seen democracy? Touched an ideology (In order to get the feeling of its texture) Or grasped an idea? Just today I hunted justice And I held a vision I hadn't met a cat That had counted its steps By a measure of morality Or a written contract Ironically you with the brain You don't have smarts Just the mercy of words That will build you a dam To stop the nothingness And to act as a reminder But the nothingness is winning I am sorry to herald And yet there's no shame in filling that which is empty Even you -

Me? I am a nihilist anyway, I don't believe in anything

Even you Rise very morning to work For money, a feeling of recognition and honor Maybe money exists if people live for it? If people are held by it? If people are worth because of it? If people fight, vouch for each other, sacrifice for it? If there's money, then there is god, why not? Nations and peoples and states ignite Flames in tens of thousands of hearts As far as I am concerned if all of them exist than god does too

Let us ask the audience, we'll do a survey here Who's more real, god, or Brad Pitt? Sorry for shoveling messages down your throats But no one ever died for Brad, the poor guy Certainly hadn't lived for him What is true: You You examine in a magnifying glass A view that's seen by a telescope Fight for flags And scoff at a horoscope If faith is a perspective Then the world's a kaleidoscope If life is a raging sea Then god is a periscope One can see with him high up And all looks clear If you hadn't begun to sink by now For this pitcher is hollow Take the word of a cat Every time over You kill god To crown under him A different hollow pitcher

You wanna talk about god? Let us talk about love Where is this love that you talk about? That you sing it?, that you write it? That you live it, you experience it You die for it, you kill for it Where is the evidence to prove the existence of this love? This catalyst, this causer The motive, the engine of life The battery of the existence, the fuel of the soul Where is this love? If there is no god, what about your love? If there is no god, what about love? If there is no god, what about love? If there is no god, what about love?

Its mustache bristles, and his eyes are boiling fire He finished And returned to lick its ass

I should have asked the dog

Alternative Sleep Schedules

Polyphasic sleep refers to sleeping in more than two segments per day. Following a polyphasic sleep pattern doesn't necessarily reduce the total number of hours you sleep, but many people adopt polyphasic sleep as a way to reduce their overall sleep time and maximize their wakeful hours.

.

Studies have shown that a polyphasic sleep pattern can fight the negative effects of sleep deprivation by allowing for short naps throughout the day. These naps replenish lost nighttime sleep as well as boost brain function. Polyphasic sleep has also been found to increase alertness.

.

To understand polyphasic sleep, it's important to understand our culture's current ideal for optimum rejuvenation. The traditional eight hours of shuteye we hear about most often today is referred to as monophasic sleep - just one sleep session and then you're awake for the day.

.

Conversely, polyphasic sleep is about segmenting your slumber into multiple phases. Different sleep schedules such as Biphasic, Dymaxion, Everyman, and Uberman each consist of several naps and/or core sleep sessions (deep sleep and REM) a day.

Biphasic: Consists of a split sleep schedule with two sessions. Often a five to six hour "core sleep" and then a one and a half hour nap.

Dymaxion: Commonly consists of four 30-minute naps during the day. Two hours of sleep total.

Uberman: Usually consists of six to eight 20-minute naps during the day. Generally, two hours of sleep total.

Everyman: Commonly consists of four sleep sessions. Often a three to four hour core sleep followed by three naps throughout the day.

.

Historical Sleep Patterns

Now labeled as an "alternative" sleep schedule, polyphasic sleep was once the norm.

The dominant pattern of sleep, arguably since time immemorial, was biphasic... Humans slept in two four-hour blocks, which were separated by a period of wakefulness in the middle of the night.

.

These weren't brief phases either. Many times people would actually get up and take on their daily (or in some cases nightly) tasks, visit with neighbors, talk with their family, etc. Sleep schedules changed drastically as the Industrial Revolution brought forth an artificial sense of extended daylight with the advent of the light bulb. Too much bright light stops our bodies from releasing melatonin, a hormone responsible for regulating sleep.

.

Some famous advocates of polyphasic sleep, were Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Edison, and Nikola Tesla. Both da Vinci and Tesla followed the extreme polyphasic Uberman method, requiring only 2 hours of sleep a day, segmented into 20-minute naps.

Salvador Dali, had his own sleep method. He would sit with a key in one hand, poised above a metal plate placed on the floor, and let sleep take him. As soon as he began to slumber in earnest, the key would slip from his fingers and clang against the plate – waking him immediately. Dali felt as though sleep was a waste of time.

.

Around 85% of mammalian species are polyphasic sleepers.

Ultimately, the vast majority of people are not built to sleep in patterns other than monophasic or biphasic sleep schedules. Biphasic sleep, which deviates the least from the contemporary eight-hour model, has been shown to have some significant benefits. Anecdotal evidence seems to indicate that biphasic sleep can actually maximize creativity and alertness in highly innovative individuals. It is now suspected that the creative genius of historical figures such as Tesla or da Vinci, who were said to have ascribed to the "Uberman" model, actually may have been caused by mania or insomnia.

.

Possible Dangers of Polyphasic Sleep

Significant hormone imbalance (especially in young adult males)

Lower cognitive functioning

Trouble operating cars or heavy machinery

.

Naps are Still Good

If you take a nap during the day, don't worry. Naps are safe, healthy, and sometimes all you need to stave off your sluggishness. A study on sleepy military pilots and astronauts found that a 40-minute nap improved performance by 34% and alertness 100%. In addition to performance, a short session of shuteye can help with:

Alertness

Relaxation

Physical rejuvenation

Stress

Tension

Depression

Research found that only 5% of the population can get by on just six hours of sleep. Regardless of which sleep schedule you choose, the importance of good sleep cannot be underestimated.

batman definitely has a polyphasic sleep cycle. probably something crazy like the uberman

[dullweapons]

sleep meme / ray cadell ❪ repost from old blog ❫

gernal note before going into details. ray follows the uberman sleep cycle during times of war or high stress . 20-minute naps are spaced evenly throughout the day, totaling two hours of sleep per day . when hyrule is at peace he will follow the everyman sleep cycle : 3.5 to 4 hours of sleep & three 20-minute naps spread out across the day .

type of bed. anything available is fine by him . being a soldier there are times where the only thing he had was a cot or even just a blanket on the ground . as long as he can lay down or even sit , leaning against a tree or large enough rock he can sleep . if he can , he would prefer a bed or at least something soft when following the everyman sleep cycle . when dawn & ray are traveling / camping they usually sleep together . sometimes they go to inns & they will just sleep in the same bed to save money . anacanoa will sleep through the whole night whereas ray will get up after 4 hours . in some games they have a house & each have their respective beds .

number of blankets. again , during war , whatever is available to him is fine . there were times where he would have none & would just cross his arms & nuzzle his head further down into his clothes . in peace he still finds it hard to accept the comfort of blankets & claims he only desires a thin sheet but in reality ⸻ he wants a heavy blanket that weighs down on him . the added pressures relaxes him & helps him sleep .

number of pillows. one . too many & he will toss them onto the floor & pick them up in the morning . ( secret : he has a little cow plushie . he hides it under his pillow so no one sees it ...... don't tell anyone . )

type of clothing. his armor during time of war . rather be ready than in comfort . otherwise ; he wears very little . just his undershirt & underwear . sometimes just underwear if it's really hot . if him & anacanoa are sleeping together he will borrow a pair of her pants .

does it matter where they sleep ? nope . as long as he can stay still somewhere long enough he can take his naps . being said , if it's around his usual nap time & you're sitting with him there is a high possibility that he will close his eye & go out like a light . very grandpa of him .

what do they do if they cannot fall asleep ? go outside & work out . push ups , sits ups , jogging . anything in hopes of getting his body tired enough to sleep . otherwise he will oil & sharpen his weapons or repair other gear . in war ; he simply stands guard .

frequent dreams, nightmares. ray had nightmares every time he sleeps not matter what he does . they are of the same thing with slight changes in details . the main focus of the nightmares is his late wife , sahar . usually it starts very sweet but turns dark , ending with her killing him . he's used to them now , no longer waking with a start but a smile . its the only time he gets to see her .

deep slumber or naps ? naps . even when he is taking his longer sleep of ~4 hours it's a light sleep . it's very easy to wake him . a soft sound & his eye will snap open . but he can easily sleep back into REM sleep .

when do they sleep ? 20-minute nap every 4 hours with the uberman sleep style . he doesn't care when he gets his nap times but as long as he gets them . in peace he does sleep 4 hours . usually towards the end of dawns sleep . dawn sleeps at 10 ~ 12 am , so he will crawl into bed around 2 ~ 4am to awake around 6 ~ 8 am with dawn in time to help her with breakfast & morning chores .

what could wake them up ? anything . a light touch , a loud enough noise . his eternal clock is sleep is less of a clock & more of a timer . he knows exactly when 20 minutes are up & he wakes up .

7 8 9 10 for tbe fandom ask game

I did 8 and 9 here so I’ll do the other two hehe

7: (FNAF) Bonnie for aforementioned reasons. I wouldn’t say its hate, I’m just pretty turned-off to the character because istg anyone who’s fav is that fucking rabbit are the most annoying people alive. God forbid anything happens to their special angel; this isn’t even an SB thing, way back when 2 came out Bonnie fans HATED Toy Bonnie and accused him of stealing Withered Bonnie’s face. Like what the hell calm down. Monty Gator is just their newest victim.

10: (DOOM) That Doomguy is some macho uberman kind of guy who’s practically immortal and capable of killing everything ever. Like yeah he’s super fucking strong, but its because he’s the physical embodiment of the will of humanity and the fight to protect the things you love. You know that meme that’s like “the cruel and uncaring universe when the indomitable human spirit walks into the room”? Yeah he’s the human spirit here. His relationship with V1 Ultrakill would be rocky because it’s implied V1 contributed to the fall of humanity but DG would also be on board with annihilating Hell alongside that silly robot. Also have you seen DG’s man cave in the Fortress of Doom? Bro is just a silly guy he’s great

Unlocking Productivity: The Science Behind Uberman Sleep

In a world where time is our most precious resource, the quest for productivity and efficiency drives us to explore unconventional methods. Enter Uberman Sleep, a fascinating departure from the traditional monophasic sleep pattern. Unlike the standard eight-hour nightly slumber, Uberman Sleep challenges the norm by breaking sleep into shorter, strategically timed naps throughout the day. But what’s the allure? Why would anyone willingly disrupt their sleep routine? The answer lies in the promise of heightened cognitive abilities, increased alertness, and the potential to unlock more waking hours for productivity. In this article, we delve into the science behind Uberman Sleep, exploring its benefits, risks, and practical considerations. So, fasten your seatbelts—our journey into the realm of polyphasic sleep begins! 

Understanding Polyphasic Sleep

Polyphasic sleep, a term that might sound like a sci-fi concept, is surprisingly prevalent in the animal kingdom. Let’s break it down: - Definition: - Polyphasic sleep refers to a sleep pattern where an individual takes multiple short naps throughout the day, rather than one long, continuous sleep at night. - Unlike the conventional monophasic sleep, which consists of a single uninterrupted sleep episode, polyphasic sleep divides the total sleep time into smaller chunks. - Animal Kingdom and Polyphasic Sleep: - Many animals naturally follow polyphasic sleep patterns. Dolphins, for instance, alternate between periods of wakefulness and brief naps. Similarly, some birds, like sparrows, take short naps during the day. - Even our feline friends—the cats—exhibit polyphasic behavior. They nap intermittently, often for just a few hours at a time. - Babies and Polyphasic Sleep: - Interestingly, human babies are born polyphasic sleepers. Newborns sleep in short cycles, waking up every few hours for feeding or other needs. - Around three months of age, most babies gradually transition to longer, consolidated night time sleep. This shift aligns with the development of their circadian rhythms.

Understanding polyphasic sleep lays the groundwork for exploring more extreme variations like the Uberman Sleep schedule. So, let’s dive deeper into this fascinating world of sleep patterns!

Popular Polyphasic Sleep Schedules

Polyphasic sleep is a practice of sleeping multiple times in a 24-hour period, usually for shorter durations than a typical monophasic sleep. Some people adopt polyphasic sleep schedules to optimize their productivity, creativity, or health. However, the scientific evidence for the benefits and risks of polyphasic sleep is still limited and inconclusive. Here are three common polyphasic sleep schedules that some people follow: - Uberman Sleep Schedule: This schedule consists of six 20-minute naps evenly spaced throughout the day, totaling two hours of sleep per day. Some anecdotal reports suggest that this schedule can increase productivity and alertness, but it may also pose serious health risks and social challenges with reduced reaction time1. - Everyman Sleep Schedule: This schedule involves three hours of core sleep during the night supplemented by three 20-minute naps throughout the day, totaling four hours of sleep. This schedule may be easier to adapt to than the Uberman schedule, as it allows for a longer uninterrupted sleep at night. However, it still requires strict adherence and may not suit everyone’s lifestyle or circadian rhythm. - Triphasic Sleep Schedule: This schedule features short sleep periods after dusk, before dawn, and in the afternoon, providing four to five hours of sleep per day. This schedule may be more natural and flexible than the other two, as it follows the patterns of light and dark in the environment. However, it may also disrupt the normal sleep stages and affect the quality of sleep.

Benefits and Risks

Polyphasic sleep enthusiasts often tout the following benefits, while acknowledging the associated risks: - Benefits: - Increased Productivity: Advocates claim that breaking sleep into shorter naps enhances productivity. By avoiding long periods of drowsiness, individuals can maintain focus and efficiency throughout the day. - Alertness: Short, strategic naps may prevent the midday slump and keep cognitive functions sharp. - Learning and Memory: Some believe that polyphasic sleep improves memory consolidation and learning capacity. - Flexibility for Shift Workers: Those with irregular work schedules find polyphasic sleep adaptable to their needs. - Risks: - Lack of Scientific Evidence: Despite anecdotal reports, rigorous scientific studies on polyphasic sleep remain scarce. We lack conclusive evidence regarding its cognitive benefits. - Social Disruption: Adopting unconventional sleep patterns can strain social interactions. Imagine explaining your six daily naps to friends! - Health Concerns: Chronic sleep deprivation poses health risks, including weakened immunity, impaired decision-making, and increased susceptibility to chronic conditions. In the quest for productivity, balance is key. While polyphasic sleep intrigues, tread cautiously—your health and well-being depend on it. 

Debunking Myths

As with any unconventional practice, myths and misconceptions often swirl around Uberman Sleep. Let’s separate fact from fiction: - Superiority Over Monophasic Sleep: - Myth: Uberman Sleep is the ultimate sleep pattern, surpassing monophasic sleep in every way. - Reality: While some enthusiasts swear by Uberman Sleep’s benefits, scientific evidence remains inconclusive. Monophasic sleep evolved for a reason—it aligns with our natural circadian rhythms and allows for essential restorative processes. - Anecdotal Claims vs. Research: - Myth: Anecdotal reports of heightened productivity and cognitive abilities are sufficient proof. - Reality: Rigorous research is essential. We need controlled studies comparing Uberman Sleep to monophasic sleep, assessing cognitive performance, health outcomes, and long-term effects. - Individual Variability: - Myth: Uberman Sleep works for everyone. - Reality: Our bodies differ. Some may adapt well, while others struggle. Factors like genetics, lifestyle, and overall health play a role. In the absence of robust scientific backing, skepticism is healthy. As we explore the boundaries of sleep, let’s remain curious but cautious. 

Practical Considerations

Transitioning to Uberman Sleep requires careful planning and patience. Here are practical tips to navigate this unconventional sleep pattern: - Gradual Adaptation: - Myth: You can abruptly switch from monophasic to Uberman Sleep. - Reality: Gradual adaptation is crucial. Start by reducing your core sleep time while gradually increasing nap frequency. Allow your body to adjust without extreme sleep deprivation. - Consistent Nap Timing: - Set fixed nap times throughout the day. Consistency helps regulate your body’s internal clock. - Use alarms or reminders to ensure you don’t miss a nap. Missing one can disrupt the entire schedule. - Create a Conducive Sleep Environment: - Designate a quiet, comfortable space for naps. Dim the lights and minimize disturbances. - Invest in an eye mask and earplugs to enhance nap quality. - Individual Variability Matters: - Understand that not everyone responds the same way to polyphasic sleep. Genetics, lifestyle, and health play a role. - Monitor your well-being closely. If you experience excessive fatigue or health issues, reconsider your approach. Remember, Uberman Sleep isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Listen to your body, adapt mindfully, and prioritize overall health. 

Conclusion

In our exploration of Uberman Sleep, we’ve uncovered both its allure and its uncertainties. Let’s recap the key takeaways: - Polyphasic Patterns: Uberman Sleep is part of the fascinating world of polyphasic sleep. Animals, babies, and even some adults naturally follow these patterns. - Benefits and Risks: - Benefits: Increased productivity, alertness, and potential flexibility for shift workers. - Risks: Lack of robust scientific evidence, social disruption, and health concerns. - Debunking Myths: While anecdotes abound, rigorous research remains essential. Uberman Sleep isn’t a magic bullet. - Practical Considerations: If you decide to experiment with polyphasic sleep, do so mindfully. Gradual adaptation, consistent nap timing, and individual variability matter. In the end, consider the trade-offs. Productivity gains may come at the cost of social rhythms and overall well-being. Listen to your body, explore your own sleep patterns, and make informed choices. Sweet dreams, fellow explorers!  References Drowsy Driving, National High Traffic Safety Administration Read the full article

i just saw a video about the Uberman sleep schedule

no thank you

[saintgeniushero]

I haven't suffered enough. I count my blessings and I have it easy (compared to others). Yes, there's tons of stuff I suffer through daily, but I still get a break (daily, as well) and I don't take advantage of it to progress. I'm stuck in an endless rut. Perhaps a good torment will make me snap out of it, but I'm afraid I'm too weak to take tormenting. I'm afraid that I'm malnourished because of how I eat (cuz I'm broke). I do feel weak, and often skip the gym, but I try not to because I feel a considerable and instant positive effect on my mental health when I go. That's perhaps the only good habit I have (that and not skipping meals, even if it's a small meal). I need to go to sleep now. Sleep is really important if I want to torment myself. I've tried sleep deprivation (and even the Uberman sleeping cycle). That kind of physical torture is not a "productivity hack". It does not prepare you to face the challenges in life either, which is what I'm interested in. It just makes you crumble... although perhaps that's exactly what torment means... *Sigh*... Let's do this the right way. Let's try at least... Good night. I'm sure tomorrow will have its fair share of woes.
