That is the most accurate description of waking up already exhausted from a brain that ran a full marathon in its sleep without asking for your permission. We go to bed with a neat little plan for the next morning, only to wake up feeling like our minds have been processing fifty unrequested scenarios all night long. That messy, sleepy puppy picture captures the exact physical manifestation of cognitive burnout before the day has even started. It’s such a comforting reminder that we aren't alone in battling our own overactive imaginations when we should be resting.
