I see people sleeping on concrete, in cramped plane seats etc How do y’all do it?
When you’re incredibly tired, anywhere is a good place to catch up on some sleep.
At some point you’re just so tired that comfort and time is much less of a factor, I mean I feel like I can fall asleep anyti
If you have the proper biological facilities and you’ve been up long enough, you can hardly stop it. Your mind slows to a crawl You’re a perception of things around you narrows to where you barely notice anything that’s not mission critical, and your consciousness just fades like someone slowly turning the dimmer down on a light bulb in a dark room.
I’m always tired. I don’t go to bed at a decent hour, my joints ache all the time, so I rarely sleep more than 90 minutes without waking up. I could go to sleep right now if my 8 year old wasn’t making a ruckus.
This was a life changer for me. I had an AHI of 69. For those not familiar, AHI means Apnea-Hypopnea Index, which is an average count of “events” per hour. An event is either a complete blockage of respiration for 10s or more, or a drop of 30% or more in blood oxygen level.
After I got my CPAP, I went from sleeping 10-12h and not feeling rested ever, a literal zombie, to sleeping 7-8h regularly and feeling good.
I’ve had a hunch for a long time that people who grew up in a busy household with lots of family around are better equipped to ignore noise / light and be able to fall asleep easily. You should go wake them up and ask them.
