The structure of modern society damages both the physical and psychological health of people, specifically where people are forced to work jobs that require them to get up extremely early or stay extremely late and thus can create sleep deprivation along with other kinds of problems. For me personally, it's most comfortable for me to wake up in the afternoons (like going to bed at 4AM and waking up at 2PM) but I question if this is healthy in the long run even if I feel fine now and prefer such a lifestyle, and assuming the reason I stay up late is due to screen time.

Is there a certain time interval where it's the healthiest time to go to sleep and to wake up in the long-run? And should I adjust myself to such a schedule even if it may feel uncomfortable in the short run?

For years, I thought resting was something you earn. Finish the list, then you can sit down. Except I'm the person who can literally always find something to do, which means never resting

Until I started to have anxiety attacks, and then I had multiple coaches telling me I just needed to REST!

Anyway, the obvious advice was right. What did you used to believe about rest that you don't anymore
