Sleep 8 hours every night

BAH.

6 hours FTL.

I haven’t been to a single class in three weeks, I’m behind in everything, my sleeping causes my eating and exercise to be all over the place, therefore I think it’s fair to say every other goal related to this is going badly.

Need. To. Get. Back. On. Track.

I should clarify this goal; I want to sleep 8 hours every night, in some sort of functional – or even identifiable – pattern. Like say, from 10pm to 6pm. My timetable allows some flexibility on the mornings of Monday and Wednesday, I am thinking it won’t on Friday anymore, because I now have vocal tutoring in the mornings before class.

So here’s what I’m going to try and do to make this goal more practical:

Be in bed 10 hours before I need to get up on my early mornings. I need realistically about two hours to wake up on only eight hours, I’m not entirely sure why – no doubt it’s related to having long term fatigue – but I know it works for me.

Monday night: 10pm
Tuesday night: No later than 1am
Wednesday night: 10pm
Thursday night: 11pm

Sunday doesn’t matter so much, I know I won’t be able to stick to an early time, and I have some flexibility in those hours anyway. Friday isn’t an issue.

This is a rather ironic entry – it’s currently 3:50 and can’t sleep 8 hours before class because I accidently slept in all day anyway. :p Wish me luck with the early morning times, I need it! :D

So, it’s 4:0am.

Not going to get the 8 hours before the 6am start. :(

I have made two nights of 8 hours sleep, woo!!

This is the most difficult thing in the world for me right now. I sleep 10-16 hours every day, no matter what. It’s probably worth mentioning I have post viral CFS, and related Auto-immune issues, therefore fatigue is a big issue in my daily life. It has been for years, and while I’ve found ways around it I still want to get there in the end.

Sleep is my friend. But I think we should spend less time together.
