anxiety

after alcohol
Why do I feel anxious the day after drinking?
The morning-after jitters have a name in the research: hangxiety. Here is the mechanism, and what to log to see the pattern in your own week.

bloating

after dairy

headache

after poor sleep

low energy

after no movement
Why do I feel tired on days I do not move?
Skipping movement tends to make people feel more tired, not less. Here is the mechanism, and what to log to see the pattern in your own days.

poor sleep

after screen time
Why do I sleep badly after late-night screen time?
