Your comment hit me like a brick to face. Nostalgia panic. Your writing style is great, btw.

Thank you for posting this; I was trying to find a concise article about this phenomenon.

Exactly... And nature itself is a construct of humans. We're certainly anthropocentric in our ways, but that is only problematic if we view ourselves as separate from our environment somehow. Unfortunately, many do.

Yes, yes it would. Systems thinking is hard. (Eco)Systems thinking is nearly maddening. Even if one could account for many variables (for an acceptable value of many), one would still have to deal with everything else, which often includes

Prior to that there was the Satanic Panic of the eighties, which did even more to the shifting relationships between children and adults. The panic was a seemingly organic media ratings fest, and reading up on it (I was born later than the

Improbably bad context, I would say. Not to cast aspersions; I think many of us make use of dark humor to get through the worst times. If the cacophony current information age may push for a interest in regaining precise language, both as a

I am a sleep deprived person, and I agree with your sentiments wholeheartedly. I am experimenting with sleep reduction for a longstanding and difficult affective issue--it works! It also makes me feel dumb; and judging by things I've w

Well, I haven't intentionally tried to do fasting beyond the 18-20 hour mark during chronic IF. The afternoons could be tough on the second day for me. Actually it forced me to find a nice meditation spot where I could spend my lunch c

I'm sorry, I think I was unclear; I totally agree with you that the benefits of fasting are well documented and extensively studied. In addition to conveying possible mental benefit, the fasting is an attempt on my part to feel hunger

Wow, that's really kind of you, and totally unexpected... Thank you. I may never need to call, but it means a great deal nonetheless.

Wow, I haven't thought about that GABA rebound in ages. I quit drinking a long time ago, although I had to do it a few times. This is just another data point, but I too remember "increased vigor/urgency" from acute sleep

You may be correct about these benefits being general side-effects of stress/deprivation. I'm trained to be wary of sexy and intuitive ideas, but I am charmed by anything with a halfway plausible evolutionary-biological basis. Eve

How very odd for me to find this on HN this evening. I'm on "day 2" of my once a week sleep fast, which means things are a bit surreal to begin with. For each of the last seven weeks, I stay awake from Thursday morning until

Thank you for providing useful, concise, and well-formatted study citations. I'm not in academia as of this year, and it pains me to see this information omitted from posts that would greatly benifit from this. I'll do a better jo
