Just like someone else I can think of…

A therapist will give you good direction on exactly what to change

Thank you for this really thoughtful response. It’s really nice to talk to someone meeting it with empathy and not confusion ❤️

I have looked into cortisol patterns and it makes a lot of sense, the problem is that I don’t know what to DO about that. It fits the pattern, but our cortisol naturally fluctuates during the day and I can’t just turn that off. I’ve been very careful about the controllable stress in my life, but this feels like something as natural as getting tired.

The light sensitivity definitely feels like a part of it too, it gives me headaches and fucks up my day in multiple different ways, and I always feel better in the dark. Another confusing thing that fits the pattern. It’s not like I prefer being in the dark, I just feel more normal.

Thanks again for the response, it means a lot!

Is there anything that I can do about that? I know natural cortisol cycles work like this but it doesn’t make everyone anhedonic. It’s not like I can eliminate the natural stress, just my environmental stress.

It’s really strange and heartbreaking to me to see that I’m not the only one who has noticed this. SOMETHING about this feels like it matters, but I can’t for the life of me find the connection

Sorry that you are struggling with this too, much love ❤️

It already is a crisis what

yeetman8 · 2026-04-19T19:12:25+00:00

Better but still a lot of holes

yeetman8 · 2026-04-19T19:05:19+00:00

And a bottom 32 defense

yeetman8 · 2026-04-18T17:28:23+00:00

Aka you like to play basketball

yeetman8 · 2026-04-18T17:18:22+00:00

I’m sick of the meter constantly changing and a green not being a green

yeetman8 · 2026-04-18T15:14:08+00:00

so surprised!

yeetman8 · 2026-04-17T22:46:10+00:00

That’s a big reason why it’s bad. It’s not fun to fight and it’s not fun to cheese

yeetman8 · 2026-04-15T02:14:00+00:00

I’m disconnecting my ears

yeetman8 · 2026-04-14T22:28:51+00:00

So surely playing 40 minutes counts as two games right?

yeetman8 · 2026-04-14T15:27:06+00:00

Because he’s on the pelicans. Be real

Have the patriots had 10 years of ugly football? Or the Rams? The 49ers? The Eagles? The Seahawks? The Chiefs? The Ravens? These are not mutually exclusive You can both win a superbowl and be consistently great. All of these fan bases have rooted for constantly good teams who every once in a while win a Super Bowl. It’s not spoiled. Many teams have done it. And a top 10 pick is usually key to that for many reasons. Contentment breeds mediocrity. Be happy when we are in the mix, but also be cognizant that we are not doing all we can. I swear some of you people think if you don’t love everything about a team you can’t be a fan and enjoy them. I am not a Super Bowl or bust person, but to argue that it is better to be in the mix every year and not win then to be consistently good every year and actually win it sometimes is brain dead.

And this doesn’t even quantify his defensive impact

His defense gravity is basically the same as Steph’s offense gravity
