Tell me about it. I'm 30 and I'm shocked at how drastically this has changed. I recently slept for 26 hours at the back end of a largely sleepless week. Twenty. Six. Hours.
Needless to say, I'm taking it a bit easier on myself since then.
- woah 12y agoI never had the ability to function without sleep, so as I approach 30, I guess that's one less thing to miss!
- KohgnaK 12y agoo_O Usually I have one weekend where I just crash and I am utterly useless but that's pretty impressive/concerning... What field you're in?
