I have been waking up early since past 3 days and getting ~6hrs sleep on average. All 3 days, my brain’s power has last longer and feels like it got “overclocked”. I am able to take in lots of information, have more energy to talk to people(almost makes me think I’m might not be introverted) etc. I feel like a different person all together.
What is happening? I have no issues sleeping, I just had to wake up early and sleep late due to stuff.
Your body is producing hormones like cortisol and adrenaline to make it through the day. These hormones help with alertness in general.
How can I put that in my coffee? 🥱
Get someone to throw your coffee in your face, that should do it. Its all about the combined ROA and—…TIMING!👊💥✨✨✨🌡️
Return On Assets? Roids or Adrenaline?
Close 🤞
That doesn’t sound like a good thing if done regularly, is it?
It’s a bad thing not because it’s finite: your body makes hormones when it deems necessary. The issue is when you regularly have high levels of those hormones, it will cause effects like weight gain, fatigue and skin issues, to name a few.
Your heightened sense is a temporary mode at the cost of other functions of your body. Going back to your analogy, hormones influence things like a bunch of presets on your motherboard. Your body cranked up the CPU because you didn’t have enough sleep, but this will cost you in other areas like your immune system.
Unlike a computer, we can’t simply draw more energy from the wall to crank up the settings permanently. So these hormones/presets helps your body focus on what you need the most at that point, redistributing your available energy.
Shit, that explains my weight and flaky face skin. Now I gotta figure out why I keep waking up around 3:00 and can’t get back to sleep.
