apparently my body stopped trying to do the "circadian rhythm" thing completely.

@AndyC no that's the body's "biological clock" that makes people want to sleep & wake up at roughly the same times every day in a ca 24-hour pattern

@slooploon fight the body clock power....random power naps for all

@AndyC i know you're trying to make a joke but for me this is really not funny, it is a huge problem that makes my everyday life a lot harder

@slooploon OK....please excuse my insensitivity, I always work a bit off centre. i appreciate for many people life can be a shit sandwich and the last thing you need is crappy dressing.

@AndyC yeah it's okay, i just need people to know this is a serious thing for me, not just an inconvenience

@AndyC melatonin supplements used to work, but no more.

@slooploon ooosh anything non chemical? I usually use TED talks on loop

Follow

@AndyC haha no anything distracting will just keep me awake indefinitely. also, i have severe chronic pain so "chemical" things are what i live on

@slooploon I have a friend down in florida who takes prescribed 60mg of morphine....that's gotta help

@AndyC sounds good, unfortunately i have a generalized opioid intolerance, which means the "best" painkiller i can take is ibuprofen, which.. doesnt' actually do much 🙃 🙃 🙃

@slooploon theres always the mallet to the head....I saw it on this cartoon once and feel like I must emulate it

@AndyC if that would work, i know a great many people who would happily hit themselves on the head every night

@slooploon it has to be self administered....I hear the law makers get kind of shouty if you do it to someone else

@AndyC if you do it to yourself you'll only be forcefully hospitalized 🙃 🙃

@AndyC accomplished. very good adulting today. and you?

@slooploon proud of you....I also adulted to a satisfactory degree....school run, employment, tidying, dinner prep and now beers

@AndyC wow. i brought away 1 package and bought some food. now i'm in pain and exhausted but it was worth it. i really hate my wheelchair, it's the most uncomfortable thing ever

@slooploon I would offer some suggestions but am woefully inexperienced in this area. all I can say is maybe stretch yourself but not too far....does that help?

@AndyC haha no not really, but it's ok i don't need you to give me advice, i'm just whining :)

@slooploon positive thoughts and change whining by dropping the 'h'

@AndyC woudl totally do, unfortunately i'm allergic against everything that contains alcohol :)))) my life is miserable. i do have 2 very soft cats tho

@slooploon as Aldos Snow tells us, when life gives you a Jeffery - stroke the furry wall. or in your case stroke the furry cats
