Hey everyone, for the past couple of months I've been becoming more tired, sleepy, and unmotivated. This is despite the fact that I have been getting like 9-13 hours of sleep every day. Not only that, but my sleep schedule is extremely inconsistent. Any advice as to what I can do to increase energy, will nofap help with this?
Hello Anagram, I find sleep to be one of the most important things in the world. Some have a gift to it, some don't... If you want to increase your energy, and your mental discipline/motivation, I strongly suggest you'd try and better your sleep quality ? There are TONS of good advices on this site : https://www.sleepassociation.org/ I hope this will help you Stay brave bro
Over sleeping can be just as exhausting as under sleeping. Set an alarm and wake up at the same time every day.
Thanks for the information and kind words. My sleep schedule has been severely messed up since senior year of high school. I've tried but ultimately failed on a few occasions to start a consistent sleep schedule. The schedule usually pans out for a few days, but then I slowly but surely keep pushing back my schedule. Then I end up trying to just get a shit ton of sleep in hopes that it'll compensate for my crappy schedule. Yeah, I guess you're correct, it's just that the answer isn't easy as most things are. Alright, I'm going to take some melatonin and lay off the phone for a few days to try to fix this schedule. I think I just productive hobbies that don't involve my phone. I'll come back in a few days to report my situation.
Take it from someone who also has sleep problems, over-sleeping doesn't really compensate for lack of sleep. Get into a regular sleep schedule of 7.5-8 hours, and consider maybe taking a short half-hour nap later during the day.
Yeah I was foolish enough to think it would. Honestly, I have never been able to nap for just 30 minutes, regardless of my sleep schedule. I end up on my bed for like an hour without having taken a nap. Then when I do fall asleep I end up sleeping for like a couple hours and then waking up worse than before. Alright, I'm going to sleep, night.
