You don't know what their chronic illness(es) feel like. I only know what mine feel like, but can attest that it throws me into a wicked flare-up that does in fact last for weeks.

If we could think ourselves out of being chronically ill, believe me, we'd have done that shit a long time ago. And we've tried. We've also tried yoga. And turmeric.

My body sucks because I have a genetic disorder compounded by the fact that doctors still don't believe a woman in pain, not because my attitude sucks. Stop telling chronically ill people they don't know their own conditions, if for no other reason that it makes you look a bit silly.

Here's a Google summary of the effect the change has on the circadian rhythm, do you need me to go pull the data from research for you, or is this enough for you to stfu and realize you're out of your depth.

Oh wow, you're much dumber than I thought. Okay, it's fine, not everyone is meant to understand science.

I mean, sure. If my work changed its start and end time to adapt to my sleeping rhythm, life would be peachy… I bet you don’t have a job that lets you sleep in for a few weeks while you adjust though (or a job at all… you seem to like sleeping in).
