idk, I’ve preached at about this so many times that at this point I don’t give the benefit of the doubt, I just read it as “get in line, night owl == lazy / early bird == healthy positive people”
Like I know sleeping is important, but assuming early bed time is a choice and doesn’t have a natural component is really arrogant. Your assumption that takes 30 min to nod off is wildly naive, many night owls like myself have the challenge that if we go to bed “30 min earlier” we might not sleep at all, if it was a constant time most of us would have become early birds by societal pressure.
Yeah I’m a noncompliant sleeper myself. 26 hour circadian rhythm so I just sleep whenever I happen to be tired that day. Doctors told me I’m being unreasonable and should just sleep hygiene harder as if I’ve not tried that lol. But I try to be an optimist when reading stuff I guess, like reading it in a generous way if I can
fair enough, I just wanted to raise awareness to avoid people reading it not feel “just guilty” because of their nature, but rather feel a bit of support on a world designed for others.
Of course we all just try to get by and do as good as we can to different levels of success, I just dislike the “all is voluntary” discourse, I find it quite non diverse disguised as “healthy life”.
And yes, specially infuriating when coming from doctors who should know better.

I too read it as “get enough sleep”.
