Ozempic for Sleep

I both want and worry about this. I genuinely hope this does not become as effectively mandatory as having a smartphone.

I really hope that this eventually becomes a thing but I am super sad that it won't any time soon. It really sucks to learn that some lucky people just don't need nearly as much sleep and that I'm just not one of those lucky people and will never be able to achieve that.

Fascinating stuff. Reminds me of the decreased sleep need associated with hypomania—something attributed to historical figures like Alexander Hamilton or contemporary ones like Elon Musk. I wonder if there’s a shared neurobiological mechanism here, perhaps involving orexin pathways. If so, exploring this overlap might unlock even more interesting avenues for research and therapies.

Excellent, now we can justify working more hours per day because our employees need less sleep!
