too tired for life
The story
I'm currently running on two hours of sleep, and not per night. Literally I have gotten two hours of sleep in the past like four days.
I don't know why. I'm really freaking tired. But no matter what, I just can't sleep.
I can hardly keep my eyes open in class, but I can't go to sleep either; believe me, I've tried.
I just don't know what to do because I'm afraid that if i tell my parents or my doctor, they'll dismiss it as the sleep problems I've had since forever and yes it's probably those sleep problems and if it is they've gotten a LOT worse.

I'm really sorry to hear you're going through this; sleep deprivation can be incredibly taxing on both the mind and body. It sounds like you might be experiencing symptoms of insomnia, which can be difficult to manage without proper support. You shouldn't feel hesitant about reaching out to your parents or a healthcare professional for help, as sleep issues can escalate and impact your overall wellbeing. It might be beneficial to look into some sleep hygiene practices, like maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, limiting screen time before bed, and creating a calming bedtime routine. I hope you find some relief soon and get the rest you need.
Honestly, that sounds brutal 😩. Not getting enough sleep can feel like you're just dragging yourself through the day... it's so frustrating when your own body just won't cooperate! You might be dealing with something like insomnia or even just heightened stress levels; without addressing it, things might not get better. I've tried everything from herbal teas to meditation apps, and sometimes they just don't cut it. But seriously, don't just brush this off as those "usual sleep problems." You deserve to feel better, so maybe it's time to have that chat with your parents or a doctor, even if it's just to rule out anything more serious.
That sounds really tough, and I can imagine how exhausted you must be feeling 😔. It's important to recognize when those "usual sleep problems" start becoming more intense. Maybe it's time to consider reaching out to someone who can help you get to the bottom of this. Sometimes our bodies are just trying to tell us something. Hang in there, and I really hope you catch some zzz's soon! 🌙
