You're probably right, but it's annoying we need to apply this perfect regime just to fall asleep.
Why can't we just be tired in the evening? I have friends who would fall asleep on the couch while watching a movie if it went past 11pm. Meanwhile I have to do some bullshit ww2 pilot exercise just to fall asleep at 1am.
- kurizu4444 6y agoThey probably aren't getting healthy sleep, which is why they fall asleep so easy. They're actually starved of quality sleep

- slothtrop 6y agoI think some of us genetically are more sensitive to the impact of light, caffeine, etc on the circadian rhythm. There's also other factors like work. Cortisol levels are higher coming off of work and it takes time to wind down. Think of it this way: there's nothing special about a time zone, and yet we know that if we moved several time zones away, we'd shift. The differences are in light patterns, timing of work and social life, food intake, etc. Incidentally, many of these factors are within our control.
