    Truest meme I’ve seen in a while.

    That being said, I once went to the doctor because I was feeling ridiculously fatigued and they revealed I had critically low vitamin d and slightly low iron (i had recently donated blood tbf).

    After taking some vitamin d I got better, had a lot more energy.

    So maybe more of us have this than we think.

    Reality sucks in large doses, I prefer to microdose consciousness as much as I can and spend the rest of my time not here

    I’m in my 20s and when I sleep in the middle of the day, I get tired so much, it feels like someone sucked out all the energy from my body. Thats why I always sleep at 10 and make sure I get atleast 7 hours of sleep.

    As an adult, I literally can’t do whatever I want, that’s why I always want to go back to sleep.

    Man, I miss the good old days when we had some communities and places where we could meet up with people from our neighborhood or whatever. Everything in the world became so much poisonous, most individuals are brain washed and all they care about is “self”. Hell, they even commercialized meeting up with that meetup website.

    I literally sat down and thought about this very same topic today: What are we supposed to do when we’re not at work or commuting? Try to form a band? Everybody wants to play a very specific “self” music. Join in a hobby class? No thanks capitalism. Volunteer? I don’t even feel like my time is appreciated there anymore, like on purpose I’m being felt into thinking “you’re doing a free labour for us!!!”

    I really miss the times when we could simply meetup and talk about whatever. People had a lot more empathy, and there was a social code that would punish you if you’re being selfish and rude, now it feels the opposite.

      Church groups used to serve that purpose for me, but I gave up religion a long time ago.

      Yeah, it’s been a real challenge. In my effort to break from the internet as my social outlet, I’ve been volunteering at my local fire company, going to church, and trying to get involved with some local politics. Difficult for sure.

      That’s why I recommend becoming an an aunt or uncle; you have kids but on a schedule and when they start to get irritating you can go back to being childless.

        My nephews are so annoying that I would rather take my kid + the sleep deprivation over spending a single day with them…

      I love being awake and hanging out with my kids. But if they’re at school and I have a free hour, I’m taking a nap, because they definitely make me tired.

    My doctor once asked if I had any hobbies. I told him the only thing I want to do with my free time is to sleep.

    So anyway, I was diagnosed with major depression.

      So jealous! I only got disthymia. My doctor won’t even get me on meds.

      Just kidding, not jealous. Depression sucks. They all suck.

        Yeah, I work a lot some days. I’m an independent contractor so it’s my work, and it ebbs and flows. Some days I work from 730-9, 10-2, then 5-11. On those days, I choose to nap from 2-3pm or so. I could do other stuff, but nothing trumps a nap.
