Binged a whole season in one night and regretted it at 3am

I started watching this new crime drama last Saturday around 8pm. By 3am I had finished all 10 episodes and my eyes were burning. The next day I was so tired I almost fell asleep during lunch at school. Has anyone else stayed up way too late for a show that was just okay?

Regretted it at 3am" hits home. Set a phone timer for two episodes max, it saves your next day every time.

Man the timer trick is a lifesaver. I used to just tell myself "one more episode" and then suddenly it's 2 AM and I'm watching the credits of season three wondering where my night went. Now I set a hard limit and when that buzzer goes off I gotta shut it down no excuses. Feels dumb at first but it really trains your brain to stop binging. Plus you actually wake up feeling human instead of like a zombie dragging yourself through the day.
