Everytime I open this Verilog or Discrete mathematics and its application or 8051 microcontroller book

I fall asleep within 5 minutes?

How one can study? >>

Ohh a familiar sensation Laughing

Don't give up, fight the damn sleep attacks...the best motivation is, once the exam is gone you'll feel immensely better and won't have to deal with that stuff anymore Razz

How can one fight sleep if one loves to sleep?
I can sleep up to 14 hours a day. My record was 16 hours followed by 12 hours of sleep. Then I didn't sleep for like 3 days...

Willpower, is it some kind of stat that I forgot to put points into it?

It's your parasympathetic nervous system deciding to take control. It's basically the "play dead" reflex. It kicks in when your brain decides the best solution to the problem (wtf this shit is hard and boring) is to make it all go away by drifting of to lala-land. Very Happy

Ironically once the exam is gone, after all the hard work you put into studying, you won't feel so sleepy anymore Very Happy

Either that or you will sleep for an entire week because of the huge mental efforts Laughing (never been my case though)

Instead of fighting it you could try to take a nap. Studying will be easier after that. Unless you fail do wake up and sleep for hours Laughing
