Completely Zonked and Sleeping Soundly

12/15/2025

​I really have been sleeping the past couple of months. Since the time change. More often than not, I’m out well before 9, and awake around 5:30. I still have days that I am extra draggy in the afternoon, but I haven’t had any blatant neuro-spiciness since this sleeping streak started.
 
Part of me wonders if I should be worried, since I’m pretty much no good for anything after 730pm. But, really, steady and consistent sleep? I’ll take it!

​I think this has basically been a season of healing. The ghosting bullshit and its aftermath took an emotional toll. (20/20 vision, anyone? The work-related one is now completely addressed and put to bed, but I’m still undecided on the friendship. I’m irritated at the idea of him sitting and “contentedly” avoiding the world, and also want nothing to do with it.) The combination of these two situations happening simultaneously certainly stirred up a fun reflection on similar patterns, situations, and circumstances in my life. It was a joy of a mind game, let me tell you.
 
Health-wise, there was the recovery of having a more neuro-tastic October, and the wind-down of a medication change. And I’m in my mid-40s. Who knows what else is going on?
 
It’s also colder and darker, which are my favorite sleeping conditions.
 
All of this is to say, I don’t think I should be worried about sleeping so much, should I? I’m alert during the day and beginning to be able to walk/run/workout a little more than I was. Sleeping harder for more hours isn’t something in my condition should worry about, right?
 
Right??
