Chris and Sleeping -

[Fuzzy Wuzzy]

I saw this video and from what I could assume, Chris sleeps less than the average human being.

Yes we all know that Chris has an irregular sleep pattern and that could contribute to his downward health spiral; especially his stress. Do you guys think the side effects of sleeping too little applies a lot to Chris? Not to mention, some people have to stay up late because of certain work shifts due to their occupations but that's a different story. What do you think about how Chris's sleep habits and health compare to the video above?

I know when I was suffering from depression I would sleep way too much since I simply didn't have enough energy or motivation to get through the day. Based on OPL's current moods and lack of meaningful mental stimulation, I wouldn't be surprised if he were oversleeping due to depression and/or boredom.

 

[MrTroll]

He probably sleeps intermittently throughout the day. I'd be willing to bet that he gets more than enough sleep when you add it all together, even if it's not all at once like most people do.

 

[Mourning Dove]

His sleep may not be the highest quality based on his sordid surroundings. I wonder if Barb ever wakes Chris up so he can tend to her needs?

 

[Count groudon]

Weird question, but I'm wondering what he wears to bed. Does he sleep in the clothes he wore that day, orange just some

 

[CatParty]

Is he big spoon or small spoon?

Chris took Napoleon too seriously when he said 'a man sleeps 6 hours, a woman 7 and a fool more than that'

I do hear that a segmented sleep is meant to be better for you than 8 hours all at once. I tend to catch 5 hours on average myself (damn night shifts!)

I have often wondered what the effect of drinking caffeinated soda and no water all day might be on his sleep schedule.

If I have more than a 20oz thing of soda in a day, I'll be fucked trying to sleep that night, and then I'll feel like shit the following day. But he drinks soda all day long, and very little just straight water.

Most heavy caffeine users develop a tolerance fairly quickly. A habitual user like Chris probably wouldn't notice the effects of an additional 20oz soda in his daily intake.

At this point, the long term diuretic effects and high sodium intake are probably a larger concern for Chris and his sleep pattern than the stimulation from the caffeine.

I'm more surprised he hasn't gotten a fucking kidney stone yet.

Also soda has a lot of phosphoric acid which prevents absorption of calcium.

Which begs the question...

...how brittle are Chris' bones?

Fuck...can you imagine trying to pass one through a bent urethra?

I don't want to.

If Chris already has osteoporosis at 31... jeez man.

I know, when the inevitable jerkop smackdown comes around and if Chris has osteoporosis then I guess he's fucked and would probably get a large settlement courtesy of the American taxpayer.

Damn that tactical genius Christian Weston Chandler! Always thinking three moves ahead!

OPL may not drink as much soda/caffeine anymore. In that video where he and Barb were eating out he was drinking a fruit smoothie, I guess in an attempt to be healthier. He may also be drinking sweet tea, which only has a small fraction of the caffeine that caffeinated soda contains. Both fast food fruit smoothies and sweet teas are still sugar-laden and diabetes exacerbating, however. Though I'm not medically qualified enough to speculate on how (pre)diabetes affects sleeping habits.

Does anyone think OPL has sleep apnea? Many people with obesity are afflicted with this.

 

[Stalin]

Having worked at a McDonald's I can tell you that in the sweet tea we dump a whole bag of sugar, and the container where we hold the tea does not hold as much as it looks like it does. The sweet tea is no improvement from soda, especially since the only cup we give for sweet tea is the size of a large soda. I don't know it's caffeine content, however, the I'm assuming it's pretty high. Nothing is remotely healthy for you at Mikky D's (the healthiest thing on the menu in terms of calories is ice cream!)

I can imagine if Chris makes a habit of sweet teas, it's still hurting his sleep cycle. The lack of calcium/vitamin D is also hurting him. When's the last time Chris talked about drinking milk?

Only one way to find out

His sleeping pattern most likely resembles one of a typical unemployed basement dweller; He'll play vidya into the wee small hours and eventually crawl into his bed and then drag himself out at some ridiculously late hour. As others have said, he'll probably nap during the day and his sleep won't be the best quality, but there's also the fact that he does absolutely fuck all to tire himself out.

I do hear that a segmented sleep is meant to be better for you than 8 hours all at once. I tend to catch 5 hours on average myself (damn night shifts!)

Segmented sleep is apparently more natural. It was common to pretty much everybody until the industrial revolution. The space between first and second sleep was well-regarded as the prime time for reading, thinking, or lots and lots of sex.

Also, current research suggests those who get 6-7 hours of sleep nightly live significantly longer than those who get more or less, but this may be more effect than cause.

Apparently his vidya schedule is heavily dictated by Barb, so I wouldn't be surprised if she also determines his sleep schedule.
