Daylight savings is maybe a useful tool for explaining non 24 sleep wake disorder in a more widely viscerally relatable way

Like, the factual explanation is that my circadian rhythm is slightly longer than 24 hours long, and (despite me being fully sighted) doesn’t respond in any way to light input or sleep ~hygiene~ techniques, so my sleep schedule slowly but inexorably rotates forward through the days

But what it feels like is EXPERIENCING THE END OF DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME EVERY DAY. Every day my internal clock does not match with external clocks! Every day the times are different from yesterday! Every! Day! Every day! And I get off so, so easy because I work from home and can set my own schedule, so it’s inconvenient but fine for me… but there are many others who are just.. constantly sleep deprived :s
