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.
It’s normal. I’ve had every blood and hormone test under the sun and they’ve come back normal. Seen lots of doctors including female ones. I’m not going to waste their time any further it’s just one of those things you have to get on with as an older woman I’m not in my prime anymore.
Being sleepy to the point of acting drunk is not a normal older woman thing. It simply isn’t. I’m sorry.
Also jesus christ. Early 30s IS your prime. Or at least not so far from your prime that you should be resigned to feeling this way forever.
LOL 30’s is not older woman. Girl get help. Like honestly. Everyone here is telling you that you aren’t normal and you are either lying to yourself or delusional (oh, it’s both).
