I’ll Paint You a picture
00:00 The blanket gets pulled over my body, the light turns off
00:10 i am asleep
07:00: and ambulance passes by, a ray of sub hits my face directly, i have go to the bathroom whatever It Is, i wake up
07:05 situation solved. Given my alarm Is at 8, I try go back to sleep.
07:30: given i’m still awake, I decide to fully get out of bed, since 30mins isn’t worth It
This happens to me at least weekly. Why? Why Is going back to sleep once You’ve been women up so much harder than going to sleep the First time?

okkk lemme explain with an analogy
Think of a glass of water. To this you add a green dye. Now the water is green.
A clear glass of water is how you feel when you are sleepy with no hormones (messengers) in your brain and body (atleast those related to sleep). When you add green dye, the water now gets filled with color, the color is the result of hormones that keep you awake or stop you from sleeping. Your body is sensitive to light, when your eyes perceive light your brain releases certain hormones to keep you awake since it thinks the sun is out hence you dont feel sleepy.
Now its kinda hard to get clear water back from the colored green water. The only way is too dump more water into the glass until it the color has been washed out aka getting tired. This takes a lot of water or with respect to your body, a lot of activity or work. Thats why its super hard to fall asleep once youre flooded with hormones that keep you awake since it takes a while to suppress them and become tired or sleepy again.
Hope this helps!
