What's the secret to waking up and not feeling lethargic as frick?
As soon as you wake up get tf out of bed and go outside. Just sit down somewhere and take deep breathes. Sounds kinda moronic but it worked for me bro
I did that and I had to take a shit, thanks
>wake up at 5am
>not tired
>wake up at 5, go back to sleep and arise at 8
>tired
It do be like it is
you fell for the Hebrew meme of 8 hours of sleep a night
Jews want you sleeping as long as possible because that is time you aren't spending grinding, king
You feel fresh when you wake up during the REM phase
wash your face with water
Go to bed hungry
>wake up
>shit
>get out of bed
You need to reach 100% sleep quality, like our savior, Bryan Johnson.
Go to bed at a reasonable hour
Keep sleep to less than 7-8 hours max
Get out of bed as soon as you naturally wake up reasonably close to target time. DON'T HIT SNOOZE!
Pro/Hard mode: No carbs/food until later in the day. No Breakfast. NO. BREAK. FAST!
WAIT A MINUTE... Now that you wrote breakfast like that. IT LITERALLY MEANS BREAKING FAST!!!!4!!4!44!???
WHAT THE FRICK
these are the people calling you a moronic dyel
as an ESL i had that breakthrough as well last year anon. I know...
do you smoke weed? I was finding myself becoming groggy, lazy and sleepy in the afternoon and was taking 400+mg of caffeine throughout the day. once in a while is OK but if you smoke every single night, even just a bong or a joint. eventually you'll be perma hungover each day from the weed. I definitely think it has a stacking effect. it's meant to be enjoyed like booze once or twice a week even tho it's not seen as bad as alcohol
Quit using your phone before bed. Ideally an hour before. Use https://sleep-calculator.com/
Let your body spin down BEFORE you head to bed (screens, food, exertion, etc.) and be consistent about when you go to sleep. I have a shitty fitness tracker where I can easily pinpoint days I prepare to sleep vs days I do shit right up until I sleep.
>I can easily pinpoint days I prepare to sleep vs days I do shit right up until I sleep
Elaborate
regular schedule, eat very light dinner, sufficient but not excessive amount of sleep. Get out of bed and directly into the shower blast warm water on face, gentle stretching and out in less than 5 minutes. Drink coffee get to work.
The only time I’ve ever woke up feeling nice was after smoking weed, someone explain?
Your body wants to be addicted to drugs and is trying to tempt you to sin
wake up earlier, 8am is a good time to wake up.
Can't believe no one has suggested you might have sleep apnea to some degree. Use one of those simple apps that records you while you sleep, and if you're snoring loud as frick you're not getting enough oxygen overnight.
Figuring out how to solve it without a sleep doc myself, mine stems from my sinuses clogging every night and forcing mouth breathing. Going to work on fixing that and then trying mouth taping
I'm only 210 and sleep apnea has been fricking my shit up for years. A CPAP is goated if you have some size. I'd also say no preworkout after 4:00. Trying to become a morning gym lad but its hard
This. Use nasal strips you can buy at any pharmacy or grocery store. Consuming THC or really any drug the night before will bite you in the ass the next morning too.
If either smoke weed 12 hours a day or not at all. It's what we in the medical world call autistic addict incel monkey brain (AAIMB).
mouth tape works and improves your oral health too
just get medical tape from the drug store tho, don't buy shit marketed as mouth tape at a 3x markup
There is also that tape that keeps your nose open while you sleep as well, it just pulls the nostrils back a little or something
And we got the first real post of the thread. 14 posts in.
If its chronic, its sleep apnea. If its rarely, then its some dumb shit that moves it from "good" to "borderline mediocre".
Unless you are a fricking energy drink coffeein abusing coffee child, its almost always sleep apnea. Or if you are really lucky: Allergies
I did this. Recorded myself sleeping with a app. I would mostly nose breath. Snore sommetimes. However often i would breath in my nose, and then exhale out my mouth making a pfffff sound. Was weird. Maybe sleep apnea or what? Sometimes wake up in morning groggy others times good energy.
High testosterone and a reason to live
everything else is cope
sorry
>a reason to live
Can you give me an example
Helping other people. Do volunteer work, or have children, or help the poor or elderly
Seems like a lot of work.
frick that cuck, that shit isn't going to make him energised. He has to want to get up and do something for HIM.
>have children
just fricking lol, where do you think you are ?
You still have the mindset of a child, you got some growing to do
have a nice day boomer
He has to live for himself a bit first before he starts worrying about others. Nobody else is going to live for him.
>He has to live for himself a bit first before he starts worrying about others.
Thats the mindset destroying this world, also you can do things for yourself and also do things for others simultaneously
>Thats the mindset destroying this world
No it's not.
The mindset destroying the world is having everything and wanting more.
I'm saying that if you have nothing, you shouldn't be worrying about others... because they obviously haven't been worrying about you.
>The mindset destroying the world is having everything and wanting more
Thats the same mindset
Lmfao, oversocialized, longhoused, normgroid npc cuck homosexual
No I can't.
I don't know either.
It has to be something you really want to do.
The ONLY time I ever woke up energised was when I was gooning before going to bed and wanted to continue when I got up. I wish I was joking tbh
>The ONLY time I ever woke up energised was when I was gooning before going to bed and wanted to continue when I got up. I wish I was joking tbh
lmao
but i get it
when I order some junk from amazon and I know it arrives tomorrow i get up easier
a job that you know isnt a bullshit job and helps people so you can have motivation to get up in the day is probably the simplest i can recommend.
Do a chem tolerance reset. No coffee no alcohol minimal sugar for 3 weeks. After 1 or 2 weeks you'll be taking asleep easier, getting higher quality sleep, and washing up without your body expecting an outside simulant in the morning.
After 3-4 weeks I yet back on coffee and alcohol. I do these resets every 6 months or so.
why are those politicians always such creepsters? My idea is that with age they lose the ability to hide their ugly thoughts, and it just shines through their faces
Wake up early, at 4 am latest. Do it homosexual, for great purpose.
try not being depressed and having something to look forward to
This thread is full with so much bullshit takes and pseudoscience
sleep with your window open
get fresh air the entire night
you wake in a room full of stale air and farts, and wonder why youre groggy?
I can get drunk, I can stay sober, I can binge screentime, or I can read a fricking book in candlelight, before bed. The only thing that really matters, is if I have access to fresh air the entire night. And the only times I CANT have that, is when it blows too fricking hard, since I dont want to wake up to a torn windowframe.
What are people supposed to do when it's heating season and it's -4 degrees outside moron?
>2:58 am - wake up
>3:01 am - type "gm" in the groupchat
>3:03 am - shit my pants
>3:08 am - throw soiled underwear at sleeping wife
>3:11 am - breakfast
Not being a wageslave and getting 8-9 hours of quality sleep per night
you probably have a sleeping disorder
quit watching porn and find a purpose
Do you drink every night?
>never go to bed unless you mean to sleep or have sex (lol)
>go to sleep the same time +/-30 minutes every day*
>same with waking up
>get 1.5x hours sleep, so 7.5 or 9 are ideal but 6 still hits this, also why "8" is ideal because it assumes 30 minutes to fall asleep
>actually tire yourself mentally and physically every day
*if you're tired listen to your body and sleep early rather than being an autist saying you can't sleep till 10 because of the timing when you're struggling to stay awake at 8:30
I listen to the words of the wise man, Aristotle Onassis
you might be snoring, i was the same, got checked out by dr's they couldnt find anything wrong with me, went to a sleep clinic, they found i was choking 60-70 times an hour, i got a cpap machine and it changed my life.
you might have sleep apnea and need a CPAP machine. You're supposed to wake up feeling fresh
No one actually gave the right answer. Most people are focused on after you get up, like drink water and take vitamin c. They ignored the most important factor. Assuming you are getting enough sleep then the issue is sleep cycle timing. Depending on the hours of sleep age rem cycle time. If you get up in a cycle you will feel extremely tired. There are sleep monitors that can predict these cycles and wake you in between them so as to basically eliminate the effect.
>correct info
>0 replies
grim. but yeah, listen to this guy. wake up during REM and it's gogo time, even if you only sleep 4 hours. wake up during deep sleep and ur fricked, no matter how long u slept
Take a nasal decongestant
to me the key is caffeine. when iam completely off caffeine i wake up brimming with energy.
when i had just one strong coffe in the morning i wake up during the night and cannot fall asleep again for 1-2 hours. then i wake up like you described.
nowadays i drinc only green tea in the morning and i notice even with this a bad influence compared to nocaffeine phases.
its a curse because i love coffee. but good sleep is like a superpower.
tape your mouth
you probably can't breathe
dilate, troony
idk, every day I wake up with a rock hard hardon and I just want to frick and lift
I guess being narcissist helps
Fresh air whenever possible
Screen cooldown before sleep: it's best to read a book until you're sleepy
No coffee in the evening (for me at least 4hr before bed)
As a stomach sleeper it's probably better to sleep with an elevated head instead because of the venous congestion in the head and the impaired breathing
>Insomnia the night we turn the clocks forward again
Every fricking year.
Mouth taping has improved my sleep noticeably. I wake up way more refreshed. I do a nasal rinse before bed every other day, blow my nose and put on a small piece of tape vertically. Doesn't need more than that to keep the mouth shut
For me I can basically relate carb consumption with how I wake up. The best sleep I ever had was when I was working blue collar, before I started drinking caffeine. I'd basically fall asleep instantly, and wake up without a hitch. But that was the most healthy I've ever been.
But overall, sleep quality is an indicator of your health, holistically speaking. Diet, activity, stress, psychological issues, sleep hygiene, blue light, all control it. Maybe you have sleep apnea, maybe you just need some water after you wake up. But I'd say you're missing micronutrients, abuse caffeine and lead a stressful life and abuse screens. Alcohol also makes sleep quality worse, some medication, etc.
It's basically on you to troubleshoot and anyone that gives you a one size fits all answer is talking out of their ass.
>turn 27
>suddenly a switch is flipped, cannot physically sleep more than 7h nonstop
>try spending 48h awake
>try spending a whole day doing heavy work to exhaustion
>try complete silence/white noise, facemask, taping mouth/nose band, changes in diet, different sleep positions, weighted blanket, melatonin, booze, weed, hard drugs etc
>simply cannot sleep more than 7h, if its not enough sleep i just wake up dumpstered and have to tough it out or attempt to nap a couple hours more which isn't the same thing as 9h of sleep
WAKE ME UP
(WAKE ME UP INSIDE)
CAN'T WAKE UP
(WAKE ME UP INSIDE)
SAAAAAVE ME
Bupropion. Take just before you go to sleep. You will wake up about 7 hours later and just get out of bed.
I struggled for years with having to spend like 1 or 2 hours preparing to leave my bed until I just took the Bupropion pill.
How long have you been taking it? It stopped doing much for me after a few months.
Damn sorry to hear that. I've only been on it a few weeks. I noticed the being able to wake up thing almost immediately. Now after a few weeks I find myself laughing at things for the first time in five years and generally a bit happier (not happy, just feel like there is less of a block on my entire life.)
Hoping it will last.
Do a polygraphy and get tested for sleep apnea
I have had the same experience.
Ages 17-21, wake up at 4am-445am full of energy no alarm needed, at most stayed in bed for 10 minutes but then got up and immediately started being productive. Cold shower, stretch, go on a walk to go lift, study, etc get ready for classes or work around 6am.
I was most productive at this time. Had a job while being a full time student, had a social life for the first time, hobbies, took my health seriously. I was just on top of it.
After 21, it’s been hell. Waking up takes forever. Doesn’t matter if I slept 3 hours or 8 hours or 10 hours I feel the same anyways. Feels as if I never slept at all. Sinuses all fricked up most mornings. Head has pressure in it. Groggy as hell. It’s so bad waking is almost painful. It feels the same as the few times I was hungover (I don’t drink).
It really fricking sucks. Have had hormones checked all is good.
I’ve done these things and this is what’s helped, a lot, but it’s still not good I still have issues and feel like shit
>air filters
Those are supposed to be changed every 2-3 months… not every 5 years…
>mattress
They expire. Most big name brands are pure shit, no different than an Amazon mattress in a box for $200 except you pay $500-$1000. Do your research. Make sure you rotate that homie every month. Right now I’m poor so I just spend $200 every 2.5 years. Sleep is way better the first few months of a new fire mattress before dips start to firm.
>sunlight
Daily, 30 minutes.
>activity
Be active. Lift, go on a daily walk.
>diet
Be not fat. Eat healthy.
>sleep position
This was big. I have to sleep on my back with my head perfectly propped on a single pillow. I used to sleep with 2 pillows and I realized it propped my head so much it slightly closed airway just enough to mimic sleep apnea issues. Same shit happens if I sleep on my side or stomach though, or if I didn’t get head position just right.
I’m still working on it, still trying to get back how I was
Also look into the Phillips light alarm.
It slowly turns a light that’s supposed to simulate a sunrise on, and then when it’s at its brightest an audio alarm starts and forces you to get out of bed to hit snooze.
That worked really well for me.
Until I began laying back down after silencing the alarm and laying on my side facing away from the light.
What you do is when you get up to snooze the alarm, turn in bedroom lights too. Getting light in your face forces your brain to wake up.
