WTF is wrong with me

[mduffy31]

I have basically slept away the last 2 days. I had three days off and I have slept away two of them.

1. You're either lazy or depressed.

I'm both.

[mduffy31]

4. Actually I am a little of both

2. Everybody is getting sick. Maybe you just slept off

some devastating puke virus.

3. Well I am a nurse

and everyone at work has been passing stuff around.

5. That may be it, then.

I know that's how my body deals with illness and as a result I rarely get a full-blown cold or 'flu'.

6. I've been doing that a lot lately!

On the four-day Thanksgiving weekend I slept almost constantly,but part of that was that I was (unsuccessfully) trying to quit caffeine cold turkey (no pun intended)!

7. you're waiting for somebody to tell you

that life ain't a passing you by
I'm trying to tell you
it will if you don't even try
you could fly, if you'd only cut loose
footloose
kick off your Sunday shoes..."

[Haole Girl]

8. I'm beginning to wish I had just slept ...

...the last two days.

9. Seasonal Affective Disorder?

Happens to a lot of people this time of year due to the shortened days.

10. I struggle with dips without enough light. Especially in December.

On the other hand, sometimes it's nice to be able to sleep in.

11. maybe you just needed some rest

lighten up on yourself :)

[Nicole]

12. Your body sent you a message

It needed the rest. :)

13. I dunno - I've been sleeping a LOT more lately ...

I go to bed late b/c of work stuff, but I've been sleeping 10 hours regularly - and I used to get restless after 8 or so. I haven't gotten less sleep lately that I'm making up for, either.

It could simply be pure instinct, what you (and others, including me) are dealing with - we're coming up on the beginning of winter when hibernation is not unusual. Shorter days, colder weather = sleep!

Also, if you're a nurse, you probably need the extra rest. Just dealing with everyone else's needs all day is tiring... my mom was a nurse and I have no idea how she survived, esp. once us kids came along.

14. Probably because you needed it.

Had it been a while since your last day off?
