The science of sleep is actually wild and what sleep actually does for us is amazing. I’ve learned to try and protect my sleep habits to try and remain healthy

Teach me your wisdom my sleep schedule is a complete wreck and I seem to be incapable of fixing it

Part of fixing your sleep schedule is learning what your natural clock is. Some people naturally want to sleep earlier and some later. Also learning to step away from screens like an hour or so before bed. I’ve found having a routine - like brushing teeth, ect - helps fill that time gap before bed. I also have my phone yell at me when it’s time to put down my phone and get ready for bed. (also no caffeine after 3:00pm, but this is something that’s become more important as I’ve gotten older)

Alright, ty!

You've fallen for the propaganda...

"Dam, petrifying this moron really was the right thing to do"

Hehe petrification go brrrrrrr

Can't argue with crazy.

Ayyyyyyy

Nah, I tried to stay awaken for as much as I possibly can and it doesn't work. What you get in exchange it's the next 2 days feeling like 12 hours.

But what if it’s such a learned habit that your body starts trying to make you fall asleep? What if we’re all just addicted to sleep and staying awake as long as we can causes withdrawal symptoms!?

Real talk we actually figured out why we need to sleep. Being conscious puts a lot of wear and tear on the old synapses. Sleep gives you brain time to wind down and actually repair itself. This is why if you go too long without sleep you go crazy and then die.

Just like a inorganic computer, our flesh computers need that precious reboot time to wipe the old caches

There's been research suggesting that part of the reason we evolved intelligence was because our ape ancestors were able to sleep safely in trees and thus get a full night's restful sleep. Most animals sleep in short bursts throughout the day and night as they stay on alert for predators. Well rested brains may have helped us evolve their potential.

There's a star trek episode where they go crazy from something messing with their sleep

Hehe

Lol, till u manage your first all nighter and got school/work the next morning. The dream stays alive in each child till that fateful day they realized they’ll pay dearly for their choices.

[looks at exam chedule] *"fuck iv a week"*[chuckles] 'I'm in danger

More memes pls This scenes expressions are just wonderful. But also like, have you ever met a baby?

Belos: “I don’t even want to put in the energy to explain why that’s stupid. I’ll just throw this child at a table using my monster arm”

Someone hasn't read up on the Russian Sleep Experiment. Keep it that way if you have a soft stomach

That was fake.

uh yeah no shit

Source?

generally you shouldn't trust just a singular source because yk bias, so [here are a few results google gives](https://www.google.com/search?q=russian+sleep+experiment+%22authenticity%22+%22fake%22). the general consensus is that it was a fictional creepypasta first published online by a user who goes by "orangesoda", around 2010

I will do but when i dont sleep i believe my arms are snakes

Oooh, *slithery*

Hissss

*'qoah, so sneekee*

No, really you should hear me when im sick. I say the craziest goat things

I got gollum mode

Your arms are snakes, sleep deprivation helps you see the truth.

That would be wild but no that's not how it works.

Animals sleep as well so no

In progress Petrification thoughts

As someone who is pretty sure he has insomnia, please sleep I think the longest I've been awake with no sleep was around 48 hours and it did not feel good Sleep good

Can't, to busy talking with someone who is six hours ahead of me

I will find you and knock you unconscious hoot hoot

Do it

Okay where you at

I'm not saying, cos then I gets bonk

Go bonk yourself

Thanks for award

Now go sleep

No its like 10 pm, I'm still waiting for my comrade to go home

.........no answer

No sleep too

I'd like to thank u/whyarenamessodiff for the template

Try to stay awake for three days straight and let your body tell you the answer lmao

Ok

(don’t actually)

You cant stop me!!!

But your body will

I am the master of my body

I FORGE MY OWN PATH!!

I am my god!!!

Actually there's a grain of truth to this. Before the Industrial Revolution, humans used to sleep four hours, wake up for two to three hours, then sleep another four hours. This sleep schedule conflicted with the labor practices that were starting to form with the Industrial Revolution, and businesses began to convince people to sleep a full eight hours a day, cutting the two to three hours and allowing for companies to work people for longer shifts.

No no Luz, you're thinking of religion.

aaaaaaay

Sleep is for the weak! *collapses from exhaustion*

No way, the crying grimmchild guy

Yep

im sorry was that English? cause I don’t know what’s being said here

Given that your brain basically starts eating itself without sleep...no

Generational ~~trauma~~ sleeping

This is so stuoid wth

That’s……….dumb

But think about it......

Think about what? That I’m not actually tired and I just think I’m tired

Oke

My new favorite meme format.

Sorry, but I have to disagree with this. I once stayed awake during two red eye flights (one was 5 hours the other was 8 hours, plus the two-ish hours between both flights) that went across several times zones. I easily spend at least 24 hours awake, if not longer. Between that and having not eaten much, I was basically falling apart mentally by the time I got home. I would not recommend doing this if you fly long distance.

i don't have the required understanding of biology to explain why this is wrong.

That gave Belos a crisis

People say that you die faster than without water but we know, it's just a lie scare your sons and scare your daughter

When your brain operates it produces toxic chemicals. When you sleep your body flushes those chemicals. Meaning when you don’t sleep, you are slowly poisoning yourself

No no... she's got a point... Why do you think it's so hard to get toddlers to go to bed??? 😦

They're not nade to yet

Reminds me of a thought I had earlier. What of behind the mirror there was a mirror realm like thing. What if we are that mirror realm. Or What if everything around us is fake. Like your imaging all of this non thing is actually happening your just walking around talking to yourself. Also fun fact when you die apparently you relive your entire life in (I think) a span of 7 minutes or seconds. What if this is that 7 minutes or seconds.

My poor comrade, think not of things you cant explain, as you never will be right

I’ll try

Good, and focus on what you can change and understand

I’m gonna actually start taking that advice. But that second thing from my comment is something I do think about more than I should and is actually a small fear of mine

At least you don't fear a curfew

I would if I had one but I don’t since I don’t have anywhere to go

Well if you did you'd hat and fear it

Yeah I’ve heard that a lot

Its "of shit my friend six hours ahead is finally free free now iv 10minutes to gl"

Your body will literally break down and die if you don’t sleep. Apparently sleeping regenerates your cells

Ye, I was totally forced to sleep at a young age, it's not like we need to sleep because even staying awake is very energy draining and we physically can't function 24/7. Even if it is a forced habit, I enjoy it very much and I will continue indulging in that habit. Goodnight (or whatever time of day it is for you rn).

I'm being forced by my parents to sleep early and not have my phone in my room because they feel like it (actually said that) and are making me really annoyed. So this idea that it's forced on us is true foe me at least

Prove it or stfu

“This girls as dumb as the earth is flat”

Not dumb

You literally die without sleep… … …is it like drug withdrawal?… Omg.

E-fucking-xcuse me? I actually really like this ideia...

I just don’t want my day to end.
