Afternoon drowsiness is the bane of my life. Every single afternoon around two PM, it hits. And suddenly I am good for nothing: not writing, not hanging with people, not reading. Not even watching TV, really. Nothing.

And if I succumb to the afternoon drowsiness and go to sleep, then the sleep is usually strange and disordered and makes me feel even worse.

The best solution, I’ve found, is to just remain awake. Sometimes I work out. But it is a pain. I feel like afternoon drowsiness has gotten even worse as the years have passed. Obviously, this is the greatest torment that a person has ever faced.
