I don't remember how I turned 25. My twenties were really difficult because I was battling mental illness. The meds I was on only amplified my memory problem caused by the illness.

I do have to say that your awareness of your body's need for rest is good, especially for your age. Self-care is big, especially for people of color. So, it's good that you're tending to your body and your sense of wellness.

Socializing can be hard when you're tired but it's healthy to try new things, even when it's somewhat stressful to do so. If you can't maybe do something really exciting, say a concert or going to a festival of some sort, maybe you could pare down your plans and go to a museum or a movie instead. Be sure to listen to your body and pace yourself.

Good luck this year!
