How long will it take to recover from sleeping 5 hours a night for 5 years? Just got laid off so I'll be unemployed in a few weeks.
Only on weeknights.
Still, that's around 3800 hours of missed sleep.
Feel numb to reality.
Sometimes I say the wrong words whenever I never used to.
Don't get boners much anymore.
I was 25 when I started this and now I'm 30.
I don't know how much of this is fixable at this point. I live with my parents so I am going to set aside some time to be a NEET before I find a job with a healthier work schedule. But I need to know how long before I give up on things getting better for me and accept the damage is permanent.

Anyone had a similar experience?

No but I won’t do that because getting no sleep is how I crashed my car 2 months ago.

Yeah I'm lucky I never had that happen.
I gained weight. Started drinking coffee (free at work). Felt a bit drowsy driving home sometimes but not much. I don't know how the fuck wagies do it. I mean I am one but I mean normal wagies. How do they cope with 80 percent of their day belonging to Shekelstein in some capacity?

I mean but why is it only 5 hours? I work a standard 8 hour job so I usually get around 7 hours of sleep. This time of year, I always wake up before 7 because it gets light so early.

Because I'm a night owl but work 6 am to 330 pm. And the wagie rage prevents me from going to bed earlier. I hate that I have to work here 2 more months to collect severance but I can't say no to 6k

>With all of this on her plate, Ripa is unbelievably both a night owl and an early bird. According to an interview with Good Housekeeping, Ripa usually falls asleep between midnight and 1 a.m. and wakes up at 6:15 a.m..
Literally how I was at my old job except I only made 50k a year.
