Shoutout to me, who didn't know that waking up in the morning wasn't supposed to be physically painful until I dropped out of college, age 19, and started getting enough sleep.
From 11 to almost 20 years old waking up literally physically hurt me.
Fuck every adult who was ever in my life and just ignored the fact that I was being ground into a pulp.
I'm 26 now and waking up is always so fresh.
Love it now. There's sunlight. K*lling myself seems so far away, finally. I wake up and it doesn't take my brain 9 hours to come back to me. I wake up and can start my day. I wish 17 year old me knew that the pain wouldn't last forever. I wish all my mental breakdowns were heard by someone, anyone who gave a single shit.
I shouldn't have had to deal with this. Period.
Get your sleep people. 8 hours, 10 hours what-fucking-ever number of hours. Start your days when your body's rythm says so. You shouldn't feel sick from waking up!!!
