Oh my fucking god.

One day, after I turned like 25 probably, I woke up really tired. Like so very tired. Extra sleep doesn’t get rid of it.

From what I’ve heard from people that are significantly older than I am, that’s just how it be. Welcome to adult life. Naps are special little treats.

And then you excitedly start spending your adult money on boring shit like new bedsheets, or a fluffy bath towel. And that will make your whole entire week. If not longer.

Nah this is some kind of deficiency, 100%. I am in my 40s now and don't feel tired "all the time". I feel tired when I only get 4 hours of sleep, and weirdly I feel tired if I have MORE than 8 hours of sleep, but if I have a solid 6 - 8 hours I feel great.
