Interesting to read this post. I have been lethargic/paralized at home for longer than I care to admit, but I was diagnosed over 15 years ago (my Grams a Dr. of education told me for years I was ADD). I have consistently inconsistent work hours. 1 day I work at 7a.m. the next I work at noon, then the next week I may work a 1:30-10…I never know. When I was younger I could NOT sleep with the television on as it would keep my mind wandering. In the past few years I have found that I keep the TV on as I attempt to sleep I guess to keep my mind on the TV instead of drifting /rambling. I set the sleep timer and ALWAYS right before it goes to shut off I wake up (there must be some shift that awakens me). ANYWAY it is nice to be able to consider the fact that my sleep inconsistencies are creating my lethargy…that I will take strides to work on ie: turn the damn TV off and or try to create a regular sleep schedule regardless of work sched. (that may affect performance but it is thier falt lol).
Thanks for the posts and letting me talk through my issue.
