true true. I'm not gonna lie. You got me there. Yes I'm 21. and no my "sleep apnea" isn't speculative. Sure I haven't gotten a sleep study, but its not like sleep apnea is hard to self diagnose. Everyone says that I snore extremely loudly and that I stop breathing and then start again sounding like I'm choking. Also I'm always tired even when I have slept 8 hours. If nobody wakes me up I will end up sleeping 12-14 hours. Every so often I wake up coughing up a storm as if I was choking. Also like I said, I have been like this ever since I was a kid. I just didn't know what it was until recently. If there is something else besides sleep apnea that causes all these things then please let me know because I would really really really like to not have sleep apnea.

Also the "binge drinking" is just an example, its not really something I do often. But I guess you're right, older people don't really have impromptu sleep overs, nor one night stands, nor go to clubs and parties, and stuff like that.

But yea you're right, I do have a lot of growing up to do :(
