I'm 74 and Haven't Slept Properly in 20 Years - This Is What I Lost

I'm 74. I haven't slept properly in over 20 years. And I did it to myself. For most of my adult life, I wore exhaustion like a badge of honor. Five hours of sleep. Then four. Then less. I told myself I was building something — a career, a future, a legacy for my family. What I actually built was a cage. Now I'm 74, retired, and living alone in a quiet condo. I have nowhere to be. No early meetings. No clients to call. All the time in the world to finally rest. And I can't sleep. Not because I'm too busy. Because I broke something in myself that fifty years of sleep deprivation does to a person. My nervous system forgot how to stand down. My brain never learned to shut off. And the people I sacrificed all those hours for — my wife Sharon, my daughter Jenny, my son Michael — they moved on. Because I was never really there.
