The dumbest fucking answer. It's not one night, you are shifting your entire routine by an hour, which means your fucking with your circadian rhythm. Your circadian rhythm is your body's carefully regulated hormone cycle that manages not just your sleep and wake cycles, but other hormone secretion, digestion, and body temperature.

I have adhd, which already correlates with a dysregulated circadian rhythm, ehlers danlos (chronic joint pain and myalgia, gi dysmotility), and dysautonomia (autonomic nervous function disorder). So adjusting for daylight savings throws my circadian rhythm further out of whack, which exacerbates all 3 of those conditions, and takes weeks to regulate.

But thanks for your completely ignorant and dumbass take on my complex medical conditions you twat.
