    Any parent knows that you can’t go straight from doing-stuff to sleep; your brain needs some veg-out stuff to just process things. (I mean, I can sleep, but something unpleasant builds up if you don’t let decompression happen)

    By the time I’ve left work, done grocery shopping, made dinner, cleaned up after dinner, done laundry etc, it’s already late, and I’ve had no me-time to just decompress. (especially when chores drag out longer the more tired I get…)

    And apart from that, there’s a mixture of FOMO, resentment and just clawing-for-agency that makes me rebel against the only boundary I can shift, even though I’m the one that suffers for it.

      It’s only quiet after the kids go to sleep.

      Also, we suffer from this.

      The resentment part is so true, though I’m only hurting myself with my passive protest against sleep.

      I’m typing this while waiting for my 3.9 years old to fall asleep (she was up extra late today) Then it’s time to get her 12 year old brother to bed. I can hear their mom wrangling the 9 and 10 year old brothers through the evening routine right now.

    because it skips to a time where I have a new day’s worth of responsibilities which sucks.

      That’s very true, but there’s something so blissful about those rare days I go to bed and wake up at like 2am and just kind of consciously drift in and out of a very light sleep for 5 hours. Just awake enough to think and relax, but not enough to stress over the upcoming day and responsibilities.

    I’ve studied for years and got a well paying job, I cannot just switch to something else without cutting my pay in half. But my work isn’t enjoyable, it outright sucks on most days. Going to bed early surrenders the only time of the day I can be happy and skips right to work again.

        What do you think I finance my happiness and wellbeing with? Having more ‘fun’ at work does not offset the new problems like worrying about rent or food. There is no happy middleground really, I mostly enjoy things that do not pay at all.

          Sure we need money, but I personally always take a job that pay less but is fulfilling over a well paid one that makes me stressful / sad. At the end we spend most of the day working, it’s a matter of health.

      Yep. I could be reading a book and intending to finish the chapter I’m on and suddenly it’s 4 am and I’ve read 6 more chapters and about 100 pages to go so I might as well finish it. Also applies to watching a show or playing a game.

      Same, just lying down in bed won’t do it. I have to exhaust my brain first, then I can sleep.
