Growing pains suck.

^^^^^^

So, what conditions do y'all have to have to actually freaking sleep?

Me? I have to have close to absolutely quiet, have 3 thin pillows under my head, something to keep me warm and comfortable (comforter + electric blanket during fall- spring, comforter is a maybe during late spring-summer/sheet), and yet another pillow to place between my legs since I sleep on my side…. I get great sleep when its raining/storming outside, to the sound of fire, and crickets and grasshoppers (has to be natural, not that phoney crap that most white-noise machines have)!

I've ought to have a thicker pillow under my head (memory foam but not one of the tough ones), a body pillow, and three blankets. (All regardless of the temperature.) In terms of more sensory things, I like to have a fan running with music playing at a low volume but the sound of natural rain does help me sleep. I always have some sort of light on for if I wake up in the middle of the night.

And, as something optional, I like to have my cat in my room because I know she'll also be looking to sleep.

oh my god
i was up for literally six hours this entire day
wanna know what i did for everything else?
s l e e p
literally my day was: wake up at 1pm, do stupid zoom meeting, stay awake some, and then sleep until 2am next day lol

fdsklhdsfk
yeah i just woke up

Okay so I passed out around 7am, it’s now 3:30pm…

Oof.

Yeah, mother dearest was not impressed but now she’s fucked off to work while I’m left here feeling shit because 1) I slept and 2) I coughed my lungs up at 4am and it still hurts.

Ahh, sorry about your cough.

Ehh don’t be sorry, not like it can be helped. I just wish it didn’t make my entire body uncomfortable. Parents have said nothing about it so that’s great and I can’t get ahold of my doctor. Guess I’m riding this one out.

Best of luck with your cough.

I just want to sneak back out into the living room to binge more of JJBA,,, dfghhgdfnsdkj

You have to watch stuff in your living room?

And i wanna go back to sleep but i can't, so here we are

You have to watch stuff in your living room?

Not allowed my phone once my parents go to bed so yeah :') I might try pushing for them to put an old TV in my room soon tho

I wouldn't really be able to go to sleep if I wanted to. Because pain has to exist.

Oh, oof.

It's not even that they don't trust me to not do weird shit, it's the fact that they know I'll stay up well past 4 AM if I have access to it.

ahahah my parents do the same thing it sucks

they act like i wont find a different way to make myself suffer,,,, insolent fooLS,,, i must always be talking to someone because i crave constant attention at these late hours,sss, i am in fact a cat

😂😂

I’m now curled up on the floor, shivering despite wearing jeans and a sweater, and I know for a fact I’m going to pass out but if I do then I’m going to get yelled at

Ah, that sucks, dude. I wish there was something I could do for you. I wish you the best for the future and hope everything turns out alright.

Is there a way to move a cat without waking it???

Ah, you see, I've been asked a similar question not too long ago. Let me show you the answer I gave them.

Honestly, last time I was in that situation [cat on lap & can't move it] I just got up though maintained the bend in my legs as though I was still seated and just relocated like that. So I don't think I'll be much help.

That's how I always move my cat. And if it's not on your lap. Gently scoop it up and relocate it as you please.
