They should invent a new kind of sleep that makes me less tired

‘Fun’ fact I learned from a fatigue management course i’m currently on: Sleep doesn’t count as Rest!

While you’re sleeping, your body is at rest, but your brain is using a hell of a lot of energy to process the information you took in while you were awake. Updating memories, creating dreams, balancing homeostasis, etc. So when every little drop of energy counts, sleeping isn’t going to totally recharge you.

You need Doing/Thinking Nothing time during the day in addition to sleep, by whatever means you find work best for you.
