Question:
Do you have trouble making yourself go to bed at night? And then want to sleep late & not get ne-thing done??
I have a bad problem with staying up till 3-4am in the morning and sometimes later...Then I want to sleep till 11 or 12 the next day. How can I break this cycle? I hate being this way. I have been doing this for about two years now. Luckily, I have the luxury of not having to work. My husband takes good care of me, and doesn't really want me to work, (which is fine by me!!). I dont have any children, it is just me here all day. So I usually sleep in until he gets home for lunch. How can I get over this problem?? I would love to start getting up at around 6am and going to bed around 9 or 10...Does anyone else have this problem? I stay up either watching tv or playing on the computer...It's not like I am staying up to do something important. I just avoid going to bed. I have tried taking tylenol pm, and stuff to make me sleepy. I will get tired as hell, but fight my sleep cause I dont want to go to bed. HELP!!

That is ME. Since I have retired, I cannot "retire" at a decent hour. My mind will just not shut off. I have been able to sleep ealier in the eveing like at 10 pm or even 8 pm and think, "Yes, tonight I will change my body clock and get up early tomorrow!" Then after a couple of hours asleep, I wake and my brain is in full gear so I have to get up. Then, as usual, my brain tires at 2 am. It is 1:40 am now. I have forces myself up early many times before, but like I said, I would fall asleep earlier and only wake up alert again until 2 am. Sorry I cannot help burt misery does love company. Wanna stay up with me?
