re: Is there any way to "get" more energy?

I spoke to a neurologist about it since she was always bitching about me not sleeping enough. She ended up doing some research on it, and said it could be some genetic mutation that makes people sleep less, and allows them to function perfectly fine on that little amount of sleep. I might take a nap during the day from time to time, but it isn't any longer than 5-10 minutes.

Like I said earlier, no matter what happens, I can't sleep longer than 5 hours a night. I can get completely shitfaced and stay up until 8am, and I'll usually be up around 12.
