  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

So I dont actually know if i have full blown insomnia (i probably dont) but have had a lot of problems, around a few months ago i got so fed up i decides to implement CBTI and it greatly improved my sleep quality (duration decreased tho), however i do smtms still have sleep trouble and anxiety

I am a student so I just study a bit extra, or smtms lately i have been binging the interviews solomon nelson does with lyle mcdonald lol I am prepping for an exam so dont rlly have any frnds in the traditional sense as of now, so stuff like that helps :) :)

I wonder what u guys do when u cant sleep

As in what am I doing during the night when I'm not sleeping? Listen to scary stories or chuckling at youtube conspiracy videos while I scroll through lemmy and the other app who shall not be named.

If you're asking what I'm doing the day after not sleeping, microdosing caffeine and light exercise to try to stay awake and sleep the following night. Until the vicious cycle starts again.

I do not think they were asking either of those questions lol

Conspiracy theories are a pretty cool thing to actually delve into in these situations lol, i find them very fun and intriguing

Most of them are interesting enough to keep my mind from wandering but I also don't take them seriously enough that they would keep me awake if I was able to fall asleep
