What do you wish you were better at?
Sleeping. I am probably the worst sleeper in this entire universe. If I knew how to sleep properly I am pretty sure half my problems in life would be non-existence. I am getting sick a lot because of this reason. I have had this problem since my childhood. At night, it takes me a minimum of 1 hour to fall asleep after I lie down. I never take less than that ever. It's very very difficult for me to fall asleep and super easy for me to wake up from my sleep. Even if you call my name while I am sleeping or if you drop a safety pin or if someone switches on the light in the next room I wake up. Travel days are the worst because I hardly get 2 hours of sleep a day when I am travelling. I cannot sleep in buses, trains or flights. The only time I sleep while travelling is when I have gone without sleep for more than 72 hours and I am too tired. That too, I don't sleep for a long time. If I am on a 12 hour journey, I will probably sleep for 12 hours at max. Also, if I am sleeping on a bed different from my own it takes me 23 days to get used to that bed. Nowadays, if I don't get 6 hours of proper sleep at night I am falling sick and it triggers my migraine problem. The migraines I get are so bad that I can't even function and I cannot afford to get that type of migraine. Sadly, my entire day and all my activities throughout the day have to be centred around the amount of sleep I get. This is very tough when you are an ambitious, working individual who has big dreams in life. I am getting really stressed and insecure day by day due to this reason. If I didn't have this problem, there's so much more that I can achieve in life and be so much better at things. I hate to see people glorify sleep deprivation to work hard because I suffer from it, I constantly fall sick mainly because of sleep deprivation. I have to have a fixed sleep schedule daily and if it gets disrupted, my entire life goes for a toss.
