What have you found to be your best sleep schedule?
Is your body wired to go to bed and get up at a certain time?
Ever since I had my son, my body is ready for bed at 7 pm. It used to be midnight, sometimes 1 am, but this kid has wrecked havoc on my old sleeping pattern. I figure once he gets into the swing of things I'll go to bed around nine or so and be up with him at six, but I'm still trying to get more than five hours of sleep a night, so I don't have the time to sacrifice just yet.
As much as I can. I normally do my best when I go to sleep around 11 or 12 at night and wake up around 8 or 9. This way I'm ready right when I wake up. However, fate is not too kind to my sleeping patterns.
For unknown reason, I am off service after nine! But I am up and running at six or even before, even the weekend.
Being retired, I don't get up until 9 or 10 a.m. Which means I can stay up past midnight if I want to write or work on a craft project. For creativity, this is the best time to think or play without any interuptions. When everyone is asleep, and the house is silent, this is when I do my best work.
My best sleep schedule is a nocturnal one. Since I have been able to live this way, I fall asleep and wake up with no issues around the same time every day. It's quite a blessing.
I love your schedule, Arlene! I don't do mornings well, either.

Sometimes after the news sometimes late real late, especially if I'm writing or gaming!

How can I improve my sleep schedule?I don't like to sleep at all. So my usual tendencies are to go to sleep a 9 in the morning and "wake up" at 8 at night. This would usually be fine for me but it's not for my family. I haven't seen my mom in a couple days and we live in the same house!...

What do you gobble or nibble as a "Midnight Snack?" It's time for bed, but you're HUNGRY!We've all been told it's just not wise to eat before bed. Bummer! We can't stop the desire for something to eat! What do you eat just before bed (or maybe in the middle of the night??) Tell the...

Would you be able to sleep in a bed that someone had died in?I ask this question not to be morbid but due to a story I heard from a friend of mine. Her new daughter-in-law and husband stayed over night with people they knew while travelling back from abroad. But the daughter-in-law slept on the...

What time does everyone consider late at night?Just a silly question about the relationship of time. Do you consider 9PM late and must get to sleep? What about 11PM? When the clock strikes midnight? Or even later than that?

I have been an insomniac all of my life. Even as a young child I remember laying in bed night after night, trying to occupy my mind to starve off the crazies.It has stayed with me my whole life and I will probably have to deal with it forever. I'm lucky if I sleep 3 hours a night, if I...
