My sleep pattern has never been what you would call “normal”. My body clock belongs in a world with a 25-hour to 26-hour day. I get tired at odd hours. Most friends and family have come to accept that this is just part of who I am.
Lately, though, I’ve been non-sleepy for periods in excess of 24 hours. Arround tenish yesterday I found myself nodding off at the computer so I went to bed.
Could I sleep?
Nope.
Part of that was gluteal muscle pain on the left side but part was also that I was suddenly wide awake. I’ve been awake all last night and I still feel fine.
I’m not worried yet but I do feel like I am missing my usual mental sharpness. The funny thing is that I find it so much easier to just be content with whatever. Maybe because, without sleep, I lack the sharpness of mind to get stuck into a coding or creative project. Is this what “normal” people feel like?
