imo the kind of tired where you've done a lot of stuff and need to lie down is better than the kind of tired when you haven't exercised at all in a long time and don't feel like doing anything including non-physical activities

Where do you rank the kind of tired where consciousness is pain and waking is disaster?

Just a rough decade, you'll sleep it off

Sometimes I think that would be a nice solution: go into suspended animation for 7-10 years and see if I can slot myself into the new madness later. It would be self-extinction-lite, but that's not an option at our current tech*wealth level.

So, I try and remember all the positive coping mechanisms I can and hope the next day is better. (And, so far, something has worked eventually.)

I'm the same but the waking up part is optional.

You'll feel at home in [email protected] but I'm not sure this counts as positive coping

Much better.

Yeah this is pretty much it tbh

Will confirm, I don't work out and am also tired.

Life is tiresome, especially in 2025.

Jay Leno voice

"Hey, did'ja see this? Did'ja hear about this??"

straightens chin as if it were a tie

.....I wonder if the reference is too old to land.

Lands on me, although I hated Leno as a kid (and still do, lol)

The trick is to use sketchy pre-work out caffeine overdoses AND sketchy post-work out caffeine overdoses
