  • My understanding is that rossman actually isnt involved anymore, but I haven’t followed things very closely. Someone brought up him no longer being involved last time folks were discussing issues with futo here on lemmy.

    I switched back to heliboard because of the issues 🤷🏻‍♂️

    The reason this post connects with people is that it validates a very well understood connection between aging and difficulty sleeping

    Turning around and invalidating people in response and telling people its their own fault is frankly silly. Just because you resolved your sleep/health issues by taking better care of yourself doesn’t mean everyone else struggling with sleep is just an unhealthy bum who should do better

    Aging tends to bring with it sleep problems that aren’t caused by lifestyle factors associated with poorer health, and even in cases where someones health issues are because theyre not taking good enough care of themselves, telling those people its their own fault generally overlooks socioeconomic factors- it usually amounts to blaming people for being poor, or mentally unwell

    Source: I have a severe sleep disorder and at 27, I’ve seen a multitude of sleep doctors (and am still searching for a Dr who is knowlegable enough about my condition to try and help me beyond what I’m already doing) and spent a fair chunk of my life at this point sitting across from one discussing sleep issues

    I’m not awake when other people are due to a sleep disorder and similarly take solace in online interactions because I don’t get to interact with my IRL friends as much as I need for my head to be right

    Keep pushing, I also have social anxiety and the more you engage the easier it gets. Finding a way to connect with people in spite of how hard it can be is something worth being very proud of

    I’m glad you’re here my friend :) ❤️
