I can fall asleep anywhere in pretty much any situation if I am tired. Makes road trips pass by very fast. But this is very bad when I am operating a vehicle. Driving doesn’t keep me awake. Music doesn’t remedy the situation for long either. I have once actually started into a day dream while driving. Albeit it was for less than 6 seconds, but that can be extremely dangerous. Often when I am tired and am trying to stay awake, my eyes will go out of focus. This would sometimes occur in church when it was nearly impossible to look at the preacher for longer than a second without him duplicating or fuzzing up. The best thing I can do to counteract that is to change my focus between background and foreground constantly. Well this eye problem has also occurred while driving, though not as bad (probably due to the moving road and stuff, so I can easily keep my eyes moving around and active).
Luckily for me, this road trip with my grandparents is going well and I don’t have to drive that much. They are both experience drivers. I will not have a car in college, so I will just have to worry about falling asleep in the library or something.
P.S. This is really only a problem when I am by myself, cause talking (a conversation) is enough stimuli to keep me awake and alert.
