lol, god no, but way better than I did for the longest time.
Until September, for about a year and a half, I could never sleep more than about 2-3 hours straight. That was a good sleep. Most nights it was in 30 minute to one hour chunks, often with hours between them. I was averaging 3 or so hours a night. It was getting worse too. The last few months 3 hour stretches were pretty much gone. 2 hour stretches were getting rare. For over a year and a half. Obviously, I was in a constant state of exhaustion. I would fall asleep in the car, at my desk at work, at work after I started working from home. Terribly destructive behavior. I relied on tons of sugar and caffeine to get through my days and even then, I could never relax or I'd pass out at the worst times. Like, hanging out with my wife at night, I had to sit on the edge of my seat and constantly stay busy or I'd pass out. Not for long of course, at least most of the time, but long enough to spoil the evening.
I went and saw a sleep specialist and did a sleep study. I was having well over 100 "incidents" an hour. Stopping breathing. They got me a C Pap and initially wanted me to also use supplemental oxygen with it, but when I saw the cost of the oxygen tank, I convinced them to let me try the C Pap without it first and thankfully that alone brought me down into a healthy range. I was hesitant about getting the CPap because I had some bad experiences with doctors when I was young and I try to avoid them, plus I didn't want something else to maintain forever. The first time I got to sleep using one though (at my sleep study) I was immediately sold. Even that terribly uncomfortable sleep in a strange bed with tons of wires uncomfortably attached to me was better than any sleep I'd had in over a year.
I now sleep okay. No more waking up every 1-3 hours. I can fall asleep and stay asleep until its time to wake up, which is an absolute blessing. The C Pap really does work. Like, life changing levels of work. I feel amazing. The problem is more that my body got used to functioning on so little sleep that it has a hard time sleeping for long periods. Oh, I get more than 3 hours a night. But I probably average around 4.5-5 hours most nights. Sometimes less. Sometimes more. A few weeks ago I slept 8 hours straight. I don't remember the last time I had a day where I felt that good. Most nights though, five hours is pretty good. Its in one stretch now, but I wake up at that point feeling wide awake. Laying there is useless. I can't go to bed with my wife like I did before these issues started. She goes to bed around 10-11 at night, has to with her work schedule. I end up waking up at like 4 wide awake. That wouldn't be so bad if I didn't work until 9, and waking up at 4 just makes it too hard to do that. So now I stay up until 1-2 each night, sometimes 3-4. Then I sleep until somewhere between 8 and 9:30. Still, I don't feel exhausted all the time. I don't just randomly fall asleep. I can actually relax at night, kick back. I have the energy to eat decently and exercise again. Some of my creativity and desire to write has come back. I feel like myself again. Could be a lot worse.
