My whole life I have always hated sleeping. It makes me feel like I'm wasting time and being lazy, even if all I do for the day is watch tv or read novels, that in my mind feels much more productive than sleep. I hate that my brain thinks this way, but I still regularly will only sleep five or six hours before forcing myself up. It's like this overwhelming feeling of guilt if I lay in my bed. I have no idea why or when this started.

Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

This has become a routine thing for me since I started college, even though I hate it and despite knowing It's bad, I keep squeezing my days to get away with less sleep hours, which lead me to a troublesome sleeping issues lately.
…probably my queue to go to bed.
It's going to be a whole lot shorter, if you don't sleep enough.
sleeping is the best part of life.
So, life is too short to be awake.
One can't go without sleep for more than 4 days, but you can go without food for weeks.
Sorry if my intent isn't clear enough, I was being sarcastic (hence the focal element is a sleepy face). People seem to be thinking more that they can get over with less sleep and more time to work/entertainment, which is not healthy by any means, and will lead to adverse consequences. Thought I should clear this out, and sorry again about this.
I came here to say that image is beautiful assuming this was a meme. Only then did I see it's on artshare!
Sorry about that, I should have made the poster message a lot clearer.
No your message is fine and perfectly clear. But the sarcasm felt like a joke from a meme community which is most of what I see on Lemmy so when i saw it I assumed for a moment it was a beautiful meme.
You have a good mathematical eye. (This is the best compliment I have to offer to any visual art)
Going through your profile I also liked most of your compositional choices.
