hey why am I now awake and ravenously hungry?

because bodies (and I suspect that if you have been Very Tired you may not have been feeling super inclined to eat)

I've been eating!

but it's all been uhhhh 23 hours now since I last really slept?

this is not what the edible was supposed to do

hmmm yeah that. sounds counterproductive

I mean it did. lessen the anxiety. so I can breathe.

also as soon as reasonably possible I would advise taking yourself to bed and lying down! you don't need to try to sleep, if you can't, but resting with your eyes closed is still good

yeah

I've had several sessions of that

because per Mythbusters it helps even if you can't fall asleep

yep!

though I hope proper sleep happens for you soon <3
