oh my GOD getting 8-10 hours of sleep vs 5-6 makes SUCH a difference to mental health

hi I slept in until like 10 instead of waking up against my will at 6 like I've been doing and: I feel like a person again

not an incredibly cheerful person, necessarily, but I AM alive AND awake

...still want to crawl back to naptime

it is AMAZING how much 8+ hours of sleep makes a difference

I finally hit a point in college where I was like "okay I have to get 8 hours of sleep every night and if that means I can't get work done sometimes then I can't get work done sometimes"

much better choices than the ones I made in college

"can't turn off the internal editor to write papers until midnight" Cygna did...not always make good sleep choices

and didn't write the best papers she was capable of, either
