No it's my unique genetics. Nothing can be done so there is no point in forming new habits. My headaches have nothing to do with caffeinated sugar water being my only source of hydration. Cigarette cravings have nothing to do with stress and anxiety! They take those feelings away until I want another cigarette and get cranky. My coping skills were forged on r/thanksimcured.

I have formed new habits where I do wake up at 6 fucking a.m. to go to work on time and am chronically tired because my natural sleep schedule is to get up at 9 a.m. no matter what time I go to bed or how many hours of sleep I get. On the weekends I sleep in till 9 and a.m. no matter how late I stay up and am wide awake and refreshed all day long. I spent years getting up at the same time on the weekends in an attempt to adjust and it never worked, so instead of being tired 7 days a week I am awake for 2!

Apparently not matching up with banking hours is a disorder.

Did you see a comment specifically about smokers and caffeine addicts, think it was about you, downvote it, and clap back?

I saw a comment equating sleep issues with the side effects of chemicals and chose to address the false equivalence.

The downvote was because your comment was a net negative.
