u/fonkle

when i get a normal amount of sleep, my brain has so much energy, which is great for most but horrible for me. all that energy goes to negative thoughts, obsessive ruminations, intrusive thoughts, etc. my brain seems to want to use the energy it has on making me feel horrible.

but when im under slept, it's like i had a couple beers or took a mini xanax. i'm groggy, have next to no physical energy , and can barely function and it's awesome. i don't overthink things anymore, im able to just do shit i don't want to do without thinking. all the things that haunt me normally don't hurt so bad anymore.
