Had a funny, mixed experience with the new relaxing, sugar-free hot chocolate. Felt sleepy, then awake, then thought I’d fall asleep, didn’t for a while, then did but just a few hours. Finally slept again, hours later as usually happens, and felt pretty dozy in the morning. So, early days.

I’m curious about their daytime version for energy, focus and calm. Possibly too high a dose of a few things, but it’s powder so I can put less in. This one’s called Soulbrew Rise.

Nootropic supplements for focus, less calm, had a hilarious run of mostly being far too strong. The final attempt had me locked in to Baldur’s Gate 3 for 18 hours.

I wish it didn't take so long for me to fall asleep. It's generally at least an hour of lying there in the dark before I drift off. I'm not sure that I can call that insomnia, because I've been that way pretty much all my life.

On the plus side, I dream vividly and every night. I wake up with at least one and as many as three or four dreams in my head from overnight.

Man I don’t care if I wake up 5 minutes before full-stack class starts or if there is a midterm: I take a bare minimum 20 minute shower, brush my teeth, and shave every day!

I answered every question 40 minutes late though.
