Autonomy of the Mind

West coast villain livin' in a sunny place full of shady people. A walking contradiction. If somewhere along the lines I were to be misjudged and I were to blame someone, it would be me for not being articulate myself properly.

RE: Sleep

The percentage of teens who are deprived of sleep keeps growing and growing each year that I’m living. At night, I practically just lay there with my eyes closed, but my mind continues to stay awake without hesitation.
Word on BabyD. Maybe this case irregular sleeping patterns run in the family, but no doubt that teenagers in this day and age seriously lack the recommended hours of sleep they should be receiving. According to the ASDA ( American Sleep Disorder Association ) the average teenager requires about nine and a half hours of sleep in order to maintain steady growth and develop sexual maturity. Sleep deprivation is a serious issue that may lead to insomnia, irritability, difficulty concentrating, depression, anxiety, over sleeping, and other unpleasant side effects.
     Personally, sleep has always been a good friend of mines, however, we've always had a rocky relationship. I love my sleep, but sometimes I cheat on her with more active doings to occupy the time when I should be spending it with sleep. She gets her payback through several ways. When I don't get my nightly dose of her, sleep likes to implant her own form of karma. She makes sure the bags under my eyes are dark and prominent, to show the world I have been unfaithful. She also likes to make me an emotionally unstable bitch with no tolerance for any type of bullshit. I'm not really sure why I don't spend enough time with sleep, but I think a lot of time, people just take her for granted and rather spend their time on other forms of entertainment.
     Although sleep is what keeps me sane, I've had my fair share of slumber-less nights which might be accountable for my insufficient amount mental health and soundness. Many studies even suggest that insomnia is a precursor to signs of a serial killer.

To quote NaS, "I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death."

Btw, I realize this was posted 6 minutes late but I just got wifi at my house and the internet was shut down for a quick minute for it to setup. So.. yeah. Sadfolyfe, kbye.
