> How does your essay explain that I feel horrible for 2-3 hours after waking up if I don't get enough sleep?

So, you are saying that when you don't get enough sleep, you feel fine most of the day, except for the first 2-3 hours after waking up? This is pretty weird and I don't have a good explanation for you.

Yes, on a good day it takes me maybe 30-40 minutes to get going.

On a day when I don't get enough sleep, it takes several hours, negating whatever "time savings" there are from forgoing sleep.

hey this is me too. never found a solution to it and for me I require more sleep to maximize my time because otherwise i feel terrible and am unable to function, especially in the first half of my day.

On a whole, I feel like there is another side of this coin which is that being hungry might not be bad for you, but if you're hungry enough it can be very unpleasant.
