    I'm on day 7 without climax and I'm finding myself less inclined to sleep. I might consider that a positive, except that, because of my job, I was already sleeping like, 5 hours a day or less, broken into chunks. Has anyone else experienced an unhealthy drop in natural exhaustion? I slept two hours yesterday, and I should really be getting tired, but all I've got is energy, even after muscle-building exercise.

    Feeling less exhausted is normal and a good thing. There's a difference between not feeling tired and not being able to sleep.

    In terms of tiredness, I'm not sure there has been a dramatic change since I took on this no PMO journey. I mean, I'm still tired at work. When I get home, I'm exhausted. I'll try to do more exercises, but it might have something to do with the time I start. I get up at around 5AM and start work at 7AM'ish. I still get up in the middle of the night unfortunately. I nap over the weekends to try and "catch up", but I read somewhere it doesn't really work that way.

    My current work schedule is "Sleep when you can, deal with deprivation", so I've gotten pretty used to getting 4-5 hours over the last few years, usually a couple hours from 6am-9am, and then a nap in the afternoon. With this, I've been skipping that nap. I'll have to see what happens when I go home and can self-regulate. Usually I sleep like, dawn to noon and feel pretty good.
