I really liked this post! You’re an entertaining and funny writer. Of course, I would have liked it more if you had found any working remedy. I’m in a very similar place, including getting briefly and inexplicably worse after Daylight Savings Time. I’m mid “try truly every random thing until something works”, and am at step one in the four-appointment journey toward an inevitably disappointing sleep study result.
Three years later, have you learned more or seen any improvement?
No clear findings, no. However, the biggest period at which I shook the feeling was when I returned to work after a 3-month leave, and began working on an LLM Agent in early 2022 (back when that was very new and very exciting, instead of a thing that’s everywhere like today). I was up and excited and energetic for at least a month straight, and I think longer than that.
Now I’m back to finding work somewhat uninteresting, and also back to being tired. So one theory that is always lurking in my head now is: am I tired because I am bored? Some additional evidence: I began playing poker with friends in person recently, and have not once been tired while at poker night. Nor did I have many tiredness issues while on vacation in Japan.
I don’t think this is the whole story, but I think it’s more of the story than I appreciated 3 years ago.
