I stopped smoking weed to get a job in my late twenties and stopped sleeping more than 2 hours at a time for months.

People who get sleep just don't know how bad it gets and how low the quality of life gets.

idk how people with insomnia keep it together. ive had some stretches of being unable to get to sleep, or having a really hard time getting to sleep, or waking up really easily, and i swear after a few days of that i was ready to commit a murder. lack of sleep makes me Crazy. idk how anyone could deal with that for months. my condolences.

Weed and sleeping pills. Would have ended it otherwise.
