At my age, I struggle to stay awake unless something *really interesting* is happening

Sometimes! Oct 29, 2025

I struggle to fall asleep when I take a nap during the day, so I decided to continue doing different activities during the day in order to get to bed very tired at night and be ready to hit the couch forever and ever.

I don't normally... Oct 29, 2025

I don't normally struggle to fall asleep unless I'm very, very stressed or tired-out but I tend to wake up in the early hours of the morning and I somehow manage to work out the answer to my question quite distinctly then. Over the years, I've learnt to write down anything I need to remember to do the next day so I don't end up doing just this as it disturbs my sleep horribly. I make all my good resolutions then and there but completely forget what these are the next morning.

No... Oct 29, 2025

Sleep? No time for that. I’m too busy staying awake to make sure AI doesn’t take my job while I’m dreaming. 😂

Really depends Oct 29, 2025

Sometimes I can't close my eyes, but in other days it's hard to stay awake

Best friends Oct 30, 2025

Pillows are my best friends.
I fall asleep as soon as I reach them.
Age should diminish this habit, but not here, and not yet.


Ciao a tutti
