sleeping issue the past year
hey guys, so backstory, i have always been someone who was a morning person. all throughout high school, wake up at 6 am for morning workouts, wake up early on weekends at around 9 am with no alarm, super normal for me. I was never someone who rlly took naps either, didn’t care for them, and relatively slept like a normal person. However recently the past year it’s been so different for me. I originally blamed it on my apartment, my room right now has no windows at all so when lights r off it is completely pitch black, which would throw any normal person off. I eventually invested in a hatch clock bc I was starting to sleep in for classes, having no recollection of turning off my alarms in the morning, which was something just not normal for me at all if anyone knew me. It helped a little bit, but I honestly feel like it might be something deeper than merely just being “lazy”, which is what I hate what ppl r making it into. I fr feel like I can sleep for forever, I will have normal sleeps 8 hours, and then also am able to take a 4 hour nap with lights on. I don’t know what it is, but when I’m asleep, I just cannot get out of bed and wake up. Another thing also is I am dreaming 24/7 when I’m asleep. Vivid too. Idk if it makes sense, for example even earlier I was going to take a nap and even before I actually “fell” asleep I was already starting to dream. I’m not on any meds rn, however I was taking Sertraline starting January but I don’t rlly take it anymore. I’m 20F. Idk if i’m overreacting or what, but it just feels weird for me and i just think it’s something deeper than just “not being able to get out of bed”. For ex I tell my bf I think something is wrong and he just told me no it’s because I just don’t like getting out of bed. I also just don’t want him & other ppl thinking I’m lazy, cs ik i’m not. this is a weird thing for me and i’ve never been like this
