Just putting it out there if anyone sees that I’ve liked something from them and comes to see what my content is and why I didn’t reblog
I am waiting a couple of weeks so people can see it and I’m not spoiling anything
Drives me fucking nuts that people seem to think the second movie/show comes out we can start talking about everything in it and completely spoil everything for everyone and I am not going to do that so probably be another month and then I will reblog the ever living shit out of it

thank god for the mythbusters though because it used to be that whenever i knew i had insomnia i’d just kind of accept it and stay up doing whatever until my morning classes and spend the day feeling like shit
but then they did an episode where they established that even just fucking laying there for a half hour, not even sleeping just laying there and not even for an hour, makes a significant difference and you’ll feel way better
it has made a huge difference in my life to know that it’s okay if i can’t fall asleep, it takes a lot of the pressure off and ironically helps me fall asleep better
…i did not know this, thank you
If anyone wants to look it up, the episode was specifically the Deadliest Catch crossover ep, and the myth was that it’s better/safer when working a 30 hour shift to take a 20 minute nap every six hours rather than try to power through. They did an obstacle course test, one without naps and one with, and even though they couldn’t even sleep half the time the naps resulted in their scores doubling.
So actually I undersold it, even if it’s 7:40 and your alarm goes off at 8 just lie down and shut your eyes and it will still be better than nothing
This was immensely huge for me as someone with anxiety issues. I used to drive myself delirious trying to ‘calm down before I went to sleep’ by staying up and just working myself into a panic. Having this knowledge and knowing that laying down and closing my eyes is a better option and counts as rest was way more helpful, eased my mind and actually sends you to sleep faster.
I’ve sure have had days where despite every attempt to get a good night sleep it just did not happen and reached a point during the day where it was like “ I’ve got to close my eyes.”
Literally laid my head down on a counter, closed my eyes and counted my breathing for 30 seconds, a full minute, 2 minutes. In 1 Out 2 In 3 Out 4
It’s clearly not enough to be considered a nap but it is enough to just calm the mind and get through.
