read up on prion diseases so guess I'm not going to sleep anytime soon, that shit is fucking terrifying
reason being not that I won't be able to fall asleep, but if it's still on my mind I'm going to dwell on it before I sleep so I'll likely dream about it so I'll likely have an upsetting dream about it and wake within the hour, and between the (short) sleep and being upset I'll likely *stay* awake for the next 5-6 hours at least, which won't help my already borked sleep schedule.
idk is this what y'all mean when you say you can't sleep bc of scary things?
(point being I am now going to distract myself with like video games or something which means I'll only stay up another 2-4 hours instead, a net gain sleepwise)
ugh, sorry this is gonna haunt you. but from what i understand you're doing the right thing to play a game to clear out the dwelling and sleep later 💚
(i also have sleep garbage issues but not what you describe)
@inquiline I am extremely hauntable haha, a sort of swiss cheese for ghosts really 😅 but yes! It's been really helpful.
Sorry for your sleep garbage also!
absolutely terrifying!
