Horizons SRV driving makes me fall asleep what about you?

When I go to a planet to search for materials I need and I start driving the SRV, every single time, I start to fall asleep.

I'm not joking, for real. My eyes start to close slowly, after a few seconds they are 95% closed, I have to slap myself to "wake up", my SRV flying in the air by then, 20% hull, not even that wakes me up. This process repeats itself a few times. No other part of the game causes this sleepy effect on me.

Does it happen to anyone else too? Is it the sound? The motor? The barren landscape? Both? I find it curious, at the same time, might be a great scientific discovery. This method could be a strong rival to baby sleep songs (there are loads on youtube), or sleep medication for people with trouble falling asleep. Quite peculiar.

You can check the sound, by turning it off. That at least eliminates one variable. Then, when you wake up again, try driving with your eyes closed. :D
 
Lately, the same thing happens to me when I start system jumping, which is bizarre as half my game play time is from exploration.
Doesn't matter how awake I am, 3 jumps in, and I'll start to get drowsy, eyes get heavy.
DW2 is going to be a problem for me.
 
LOL I thought it's only me but its not!
I had same effects while exploring, one time I woke up when I jump off very close to the star and almost blow mine ship! Then I realiesed I'm very tired but hey I played only 30mins! This falling a sleep happens to me few times, mostly while exploring.

Really it was very bizarre to me, because when I only start playing I felt so sleepy and when I quit for a few mins sleep just goes away.
 
That’s what happens to me in the cinema. As soon as the house lights go down. So do my eyelids.
Not in Elite, thankfully.
