    I have once (1) woken up feeling completely refreshd and ready for the day without any chemical assistance and I still feel revolted thinking that that’s normal for some people.

      That’s me every day. Sleep like a baby every night.

      As a bonus, I have a bizarre talent of being able to wake up exactly when I need to. I always wake up before my alarm, even when I set it for earlier than usual.

        I had that for one summer. Consistently waking 10 minutes before my alarm. So consistently that I stopped bothering to even set an alarm.

        It was great, right up until the clocks went back and I was left waking up over an hour before I needed to.

        Weirdly, the only way I found to break the cycle was to start setting an alarm.

      I get that every time I go to bed at around 5-7 AM and wake up 5-8 hours later. Try it

      But also

      Get tested for sleep apnea, that makes you feel more tired after sleeping

      Ugh me too. I’ve experienced it a few times in my life, but I’m cursed with narcolepsy so it’s not in the cards for me🥲

      I only get that after a night of binge drinking. So for better or for worse, like maybe twice a year. But that’s definitely chemical assistance lol
