    In my experience, the feeling of not having slept enough doesn’t vanish, no matter how long you sleep. Personal hypothesis: When you wake up, the sleeping hormones are still present in your body and make you not want to get up, whether you still need to sleep or not.

      For me, there is a “yessss let’s go!” moment that will happen eventually that let’s me know I’ve truly slept enough, but I truly do think we’re all exhausted in a way we’re not evolved to properly deal with yet. Maybe 15-17 hours, while excessive, is what we all collectively need to start the repairing process. Who knows.
