Going to bed

Kate Kestrel

Does anyone else on here struggle to go to bed? We have a real problem with this in my family. We always mean to go to bed at about 11pm but we always actually end up going to bed at about 2am. It’s a habit we seem to find so hard to break. It’s annoying.

  • My body dosen't want to go to sleep at 11pm, it wants to go to sleep at about 1:30-2:30 am, I don't get up until about 11-11:30 am, but I still get plenty done, I'm less stressed and if theres one thing gauranteed to make not sleep it's worrying about falling asleep

    It’s nice to be able to choose your own routine if you can be flexible like that. My husband has to get up really early for work though, and I wake up with him, so we definitely should not be going to bed at 2 am (but so often do). If we start watching a film then we are doomed because we always end up wanting to watch to the end. We love films.

    I do chose to do this, I'm lucky now that after many years of having to get up far earlier than my body wanted and sleep earlier than it wanted I can now set my own times.

    I must admit that I can no longer sleep in the same bed as another human, or even the same room.

    I know a lot of people think I should get up earlier and go to sleep earlier, but what's the point of not working if you have to keep the same time schedule?
