Yes. But then you still can’t rest.

Tired but wired.

Right now. I need to sleep, but I'm so excited about something, I can't.

Nope. I'm so tired, that I'm tired even when I'm not tired!

I am a women, with a spouse and children. Need I say more?

Yes. Your body goes through a traumatic response because of a lack of sleep, like a flight or fight switch gets tripped. It can be hard to hard to wrestle yourself down to the layer of exhaustion you truly are.

Why yes I have

Yes, it seems to have started after Jan 21 for some reason.

We’ve always called it ‘punchy.’ Is that a Newfie thing or a Canadian thing? And, yes, many times.

My grandma used to say that we were “overtired” when we got so tired we were wide awake. I’m guessing it’s regional/cultural

We say that with babies, usually. Cause, damn, when they hit that point, you are not getting them to sleep. (Well, there are some tricks to doing so but it will still take longer than normal.)

It’s fitting, because when I get that way I feel like a baby 😂 But it’s also when the anticipatory anxiety kicks in and everything makes you jump

Then, when you finally do get a chance to really let down and rest, it takes at least a full weekend of melting into a puddle before reemerging untired.

I’ve been so physically tired that I didn’t care that a bug was walking across my face. Like if he’s still there tomorrow I’ll deal with it.

Literally this whole-ass year.

It’s how I’m living right now

Yup. Very long workday on camera. Very surreal.

If I’m really tired but I miss that "sleep window" I will be up all night.

word

Literally over tired

yup know it very well

Yup. It took around 30days straight of long days. I found a pace I could sustain. Fatigued, but able to maintain.

Yup it is like being so hungry that you miss your window and you aren't hungry anymore.

At least 2 times a month.

That's me right now. I've been getting ready to have a sale, so my adrenaline is still going.

So tired that I can’t seem to slow down. Just go and go till i eventually crash 🤦‍♀️

Yes, I call it the over stimulated child syndrome. So tired you are wired

All the time, including right now 🫠

I've memories of college finals being like that; and then it hits you.

thats your body giving its last drop of adrenalin so you find a place to crash before you do.

There's a word for that.🤔

On a daily basis, yes…

Two nights ago when WWIII was doing the footsie.

Overtired and just can't fall asleep.

Yep, I call it depression

so tired that i can't sleep well

Yes, every single day. Knowing that I wake up into chaos and madness, either near me or afar. With a little ways to escape, even for a bit.

This makes me think how many of my funny stories are people falling asleep at work while working funny stories. Well, at least they're funny to me, now ... lol Yes.

Yup.

Too tired to sleep? Yep. 🤔

25th wind!!!

So exhausted I couldn't fall asleep

Or hungry! I’m eating waaay less food right now!

Yes, many a day!!!!

Yes. :)
