So.. what time do you go to bed? (17)

1 Name: Anonymous : 2009-12-15 07:55 ID:+R+ywlRd

Was talking to a friend earlier and somehow the topic bedtimes came up. I told her I usually go to bed at 1 AM and she thought that was really late. Which is sad, because I actually go to bed around 2.

So... am I just desensitized to how normal functioning people regulate their sleep hours.. or do other people actually stay up past 1AM on a regular basis?

I get up at about 7 every morning so I'm in bed by 10:30, usually fall asleep at 11:00-11:30. On weekends, however, I stay up until 3:00 AM, but I sleep in so that I still get at least 7 hours of sleep.

Most people follow a sleeping schedule more like yours, >>1, and don't go to bed until really late, only get 3-6 hours of sleep and then have all kinds of health and mental problems as a result.

I go to bed somewhere between 11-1. It depends if I have a reason to get up. I always have trouble getting to sleep, so I stay up till exhaustion.

Then I get up at about 7:30. On the weekends, I sleep in till 9 or 10.

It varies so much that it's hard to even make an estimate. I stay up for 12-30 hours at a time depending on my school schedule. Sometimes I sleep in the daytime and sometimes in the night. This causes some problems in life (no routines, stores might be closed when I wake up, drinking in bars is weird because my night is sometimes other people's morning etc). Next year I think I'll look into sleeping pills that could help me with finding a rythm.

at around 2-3 AM i guess. And I wake up at 8.30 most of the time.
i don't think that's a very normal sleeping schedule, but that's just how my body got used to when in first year of college

There was a time when I had no sleeping schedule
i.e. I went to sleep when I feel I like it, because of doing some unhealthy activities (which I do not do now). But now I try to have as healthiest sleepstyle as possible. But now it's mid-terms, and I can not follow my sleeping schedule. This makes my brains and behaviour totaly fucked up. But after exams I'll go back to my old schedule. Sleeping as much as possible. And almost all of this is the truth.
I mean I am so crazy because of studying related stress that "misunderstood" is a word of a month.

I usually fall asleep anywhere from 11 at night to 2 in the morning, even when I have to be up at 8:25 to prepare for work, usually wasting time on the internet or xbox. I also consume far too much caffeine for it to be considered safe/healthy.

On weekdays, I'm almost always in bed by 11:30 at the latest; I aim for earlier, as I'm perpetually sleep deprived. This only works if my live-in gf is also in town. When she's traveling on business I often sort of forget to go to bed and don't get to sleep until 2, 3, or even later. This sucks, because I generally need to be out of bed not long after 7 to be at work by 8:30.

On weekends I'll regularly stay up until 2 and sleep until 10 or even later. My girlfriend is less of a night owl than me, so she'll sometimes go to bed and get up earlier.

My cycle is messed up, so I sleep with pills to keep a somewhat sane timetable. Usually I manage to fall asleep around 2AM - 5AM. Depending on the next days tasks I can wake up by 7AM or as late as 4PM. If for some reason I'd be unable to take my pills, then I stay awake for about 20 hours, sleep very badly for some time and then stay awake again for another 20 hours or so. Falling asleep is the hard part, not the amount of sleep I get, but waking up every ~15 minutes makes me kinda tired no matter how much I slept.

1am when I'm not going to work or school the next day. Otherwise, I usually fall asleep at 10:30 to 11.

If it's Uni next day, just so long as it's before 3, if not, whenever.

I've never ever had a problem with going to sleep, the problem was not going to sleep. As relaxing as it is, I always feel like I'm wasting time when I get more than eight hours of sleep. Over the course of my life, this manner of thinking and the resulting struggle with my own body has conditioned me to become a weird sleeper.

I'll get back from classes one day and stay up until the next day, then struggle through those lectures. I'll get home anywhere from 2 to 4 PM and sleep, sometimes for more than twelve hours. Other times, I'll sleep when I come home, then start my day at midnight.
Basically, I don't really give a shit anymore.

When summer break starts again, I'm definitely going to start working out. There was a small period in my life when I exercised a lot, and in that window of time, my sleep schedule and eating habits were more natural than ever before. What the hell, I'm not doing anything better with my time, I might as well become interested.

On another note, anyone ever heard of polyphasic sleep? Always wanted to try that, never had the motivation.
