Caffeine

good sleep overnight

food

SLEEP 😴! ...

Haha 😆 what's that?

According to my DNA report I'm a light sleeper and an evening person.

And I certainly agree with that!

To get through my day I need protein and caffeine. I also use a protein shake as creamer for my coffee 😁

My lunch!

Sleep and exercise mostly, if I don’t have those things then I have to rely on coffee for short bursts of energy. ☕️

I nearly became nocturnal lol

Like actually. I had to fix it. I had gotten sick shortly after, so that sort of helped me change it back. 😂 If people are struggling to be DIURNAL lol they’re not getting enough sleep. Especially if they would feel more awake at night by contrast. If it’s not the direct opposite, and they’re just tired all the time, it could be some stress-related thing or health issue. They should have it checked out with a trusted medical professional. I personally suggest ensuring they have just enough carbs in their diet cause that’s where our bodies get the most energy. More fluids- staying hydrated. And if stress keeps them awake at night things like chamomile tea can help them snooze better. Now I don’t have much issue staying awake in the day, right up until the point it’s time to sleep again. I don’t play around about it either. When it’s rest time, I’m out like a light. 💡

Daytime sleepiness can certainly be fixed.

Voted a good night sleep

It’s simple really

The fact that I know that even if I went home, I can’t go to bed until my baby does lol. I have no choice but to be awake.
