The possibility that I might be sleep deprived, rather than (as I've been assuming) sedated, kind of changes the whole picture of my life. It's hard waiting to find out. I've actually, coincidentally, been reading a bunch of stuff about sleep deprivation. If I'm experiencing even a hundredth of a percent of what the poor bastards subjected to "sleep management" go through, I promise you, it is torture.

Yup - having babies / being pregnant again reminds me just how torturous being forced to wake up and function on little sleep really is :/

I'm sitting here after waking up in the night with ideas to help my mom with mer thyroid meds / afib, and being unable to go back to sleep, about to crash onto my keyboard at 8.15 am. I have the whole day to make it through with a 4 year old in summer term :/

Heaven help me in September when i'm due to pop, and baby makes two :(

Huge sympathies. God knows why the human race hasn't gone extinct.

I think other people are better at dealing with sleep deprivation than i am - i get irrational and can't think and cry a lot and feel drunk/sick.

I'm sure not everyone feels so utterly wretched when they haven't slept...
