Скачать или смотреть It’s 4am and I’m still going 😴

It is four in the morning and I have just woken up. My list is long, my brain is buzzing, and yet I am also bone-tired. This is the contradiction I live with — the pull between wanting to rest and wanting to start creating.

The National Sleep Foundation recommends adults aim for seven to nine hours of sleep a night, but for many neurodivergent people, sleep can be elusive. ADHD, autism, and anxiety can all impact sleep cycles, making it harder to switch off. For me, the quiet of the early hours is both a blessing and a trap. It is peaceful, but it is also when my brain decides to solve everything at once.

Sometimes, I embrace it. Other times, I promise myself I will go to bed earlier tomorrow. Spoiler: I rarely do.
