I sleep 10 hours a night but still need to nap constantly during the day. Even 400 mg of caffeine doesn’t buzz me, it just makes me feel 70% close to my normal, high energy 20s self. My daytime fatigue is so severe I’ve been mistaken for being drunk (even though I don’t drink), and I experience a dream like brain fog around friends unless I use caffeine pills to seem present.
I know this is part of normal aging for a woman in her 30s, but it’s frustrating to constantly need naps when I haven’t even done anything. Sometimes you just have to biohack. Still, I feel a bit jealous of how men age differently and seem to keep loads of energy.
I have a fitbit and it says my sleep’s fine. No abnormal oxygen variations.
Also it’s possible you age slower than most women. Not all old men are as lucid as David Attenborough, for example.
And women are clinically considered to be geriatric at 35 or older. Geriatric. I’m 31, so I’m not in my prime anymore. https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/geriatric-pregnancy
For pregnancy It says it right in your link.
Yes, as in, a geriatric woman being pregnant. It’s risky having children at or past that age, because a woman’s DNA has took a beating from ageing.
This is untrue.
The pregnancy was called geriatric, not the woman. What you describe is not normal. Every women over 60 I personally know, sleeps less and is less tired than you seem to be. You may not be infected with something, but this is not normal, and if you are annoyed by it, you should do something about it.
Get a real sleep study done, not just your boyfriend watching you. It has nothing to do with aging slower, but if you are so tired you get mistaken for drunk after a full nights sleep, there is absolutely something going on that you need to look into.
You can have all the normal blood tests in the world and that doesn’t mean there isn’t something wrong. It took a couple years of blood tests and scans coming out normal for doctors to find out it was cancer causing my dad’s skin rashes, they only found it because of a chest x-ray for something entirely unrelated.
Looking at your other posts, you seriously need to see a doctor. Something is wrong.
Everything’s normal! I’ve seen multiple doctors and had every blood, vitamin, and hormone test under the sun, and then some. Everything comes back normal. I’m just not in my prime
You’re acting drunk, mispronouncing your words enough that you have to text and can’t speak properly, and need constant naps.
Come on now. I know it sucks to push doctors for answers, I know it sucks to have to stop and take care of your health, but this is serious.
I’ve seen multiple doctors for years. This is just something I need to get on with. Every blood test came back normal. And, like the meme I posted suggests, caffeine does wonders.
I really don’t believe this is actually a woman and I fucking hate saying that. There is too much “not in my prime anymore”. Like every single comment has that, it so reads as a guy making fun of women getting older.
Nah there’s no way this is a woman and I also hate saying that. No woman is seriously pushing that our DNA degrades so much in our 30s that we’re literally geriatric.
100% agree. They gave the game away in the last few comments.
Gross trolls are gross
You’d think these types would get tired of the same jokes over and over again.
Women being ancient at 30 years old? Please, it’s not even clever!
The entire account is gross. I reported the post under this rule:
Be civil: No trolling, bigotry or other insulting / annoying behaviour
I pointed out the comments calling women over 35 are offensive and the entire account feels like a troll.
