I have the deepest, most abiding jealousy of people who can just “go to sleep” without their brain turning it into an ordeal for hours and hours. This has been my whole damn life.

Please dont recommend medications and other things. Ive tried everything. Trust me. My brain fights against horribly and just excerbates it while making my body go haywire.

The only thing that genuinely works is alcohol, and for obvious damn reasons I don’t want to go down that road. Have even had times where I have. Nothing good comes from it.

I think there is a better solution for your problem, but I have no idea what it is or how to find it. Instead of focusing on what doesn’t work, think of things you’ve never tried before. The answer is in there somewhere.

If it exists it must be something you haven’t tried. The alternative is it’s impossible for you to have restful sleep, that’s highly unlikely.

Actually, it's very likely and fairly common enough. To that, you should listen to me, the person who has had to deal with it their whole life. And not you, the person who hasn't at all and is just coming at at this from a place of vague conventional wisdom.

So you know my sleep patterns? You know for a fact I’ve never had the same problem and found a solution? You just said it’s a common problem. And my methods are anything but conventional.

For love of all that is good and pure you are not listening.

I am listening, that doesn’t mean I have to agree with you. I’m a programmer by nature, problems are just solutions waiting to be found. Decades of failure has primed you to accept failure, I’ve failed for decades in my own endeavors, and giving up never solved any of my problems

Here's one I can hopefully help solve: Programmers need to listen to doctors, artists, writers, scientists, etc. more. And understanding sometimes the biggest solution is having some empathy and listening / learning and not talking to people like they're a math problem.

How I interact with the world is my decision, I’m not telling you how to think and act, and I’d expect the same courtesy in return. I don’t expect you to take my advice, and you can’t stop me from running my mouth, that’s fair isn’t it?
