Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Bullshit
Says the person who believes slipping into a coma for 8 hours and hallucinating is somehow "restorative" and will give them energy (as opposed to, say, food, which actually gives you energy.)
There are certain biochemical things the body is able to do only during sleep.
So yea, sleep is as important, perhaps more so, than eating.
People die from sleep loss faster than from food loss.
Try to stay awake for a month vs not eating for a month, guess which will kill you first.
Get a sleep study done, you got something going on.
Nobody who actually understands sleep believes it gives energy all by itself. It gives your brain time to do some "house cleaning," clearing out the cobwebs as it were. Yes, you wake up feeling a bit more refreshed, but that will diminish in short order without breakfast to give your body the fuel it needs to create that energy you're taking about.
Bullshit. More like "makes your brain like jumanji and it takes 8-9 hours to clean up".
If you’re not some weird troll, your doctors are morons for not suggesting a sleep study if you went to them with half as much information as you’ve told lemmy like five different times.
What exactly do you think Jumanji is? It sounds like you think sleep is like Jumanji but in the movies you don't go into Jumanji, Jumanji comes out of Jumanji. I mean technically one guy, Robin Williams, goes into Jumanji, but the rest of Jumanji is that Jumanji comes out of Jumanji, so it's not like sleep, and suggesting so makes it clear you don't know what you're talking about. Anyway if sleep was like Jumanji you would need medicine and rope and such to get out alive (from the series of jungle emergencies), not just coffee, so maybe try being prepared next time?
I think OP is probably younger and associating Jumanji with the newer movies, where they're trapped in a video game.
