The couch

From now on I will pay a friend 20 euro’s whenever I fall asleep on the couch after 1.00 AM.
This worked for quiting smoking. Let’s see if it works for this too…
How to sleep regularly
It made me
awake 
"I had to start managing my sleep time when I began commuting to just because I can't be tired when I'm on the road for so long. Especially as there are bridges. Over water."
How I did it: Give up caffeine, late night video game binges, and anything fun. Really, it was simple, I didn't have a plan or techniques or anything, it just took willpower to fight my internal clock.
Lessons & tips: You must be willing to suffer for regularity. Avoid things that keep you up late, and get up at the same time on off days.
Resources: My hand.

woo, my little plan worked last night, despite the fact that i’d had caffeine and didn’t wake up until 5pm! today i didn’t have caffeine but i did take a nap for about 45 mins., oops. i feel pretty tired from swimming for three hours or so so i’m hoping it won’t make a huge difference.
GOD, it felt so good to sleep normally for a night. and so good to do it without meds.

i am sooo sick of my insomnia. obviously, the prescription medication isn’t working anymore so i am going for more natural means – i am really going to hit this goal hard because the lack of sleep is literally driving me insane.
some of my attempts to resolve the sleeping issues are:
1. no caffeine
2. go to bed at 11 and get up at 8, whether i sleep or not
3. NO NAPS.
4. exercise every day
5. drink chamomile tea
6. take a melatonin around 10 pm
7. read in bed for 20-30 mins
we’ll see how this goes! it’s really starting tomorrow, because i did drink caffeine today.

Giving up temporarily

While my twins are still babies, there’s no way this is going to happen. Best just to accept it and move on.

I went out drinking, and my schedule got all thrown off. I’m surprised how easy it was for me to slip back into my bad sleeping habit, which is forcing myself to stay awake just ONE more hour (and just ONE after that, and just ONE more after that) even though I feel exhausted. That’s it. I’m going to sleep. RIGHT NOW, I SAY!
Bad scheduling

I never can seem to get into a regular sleep schedule. At the very least, I’d like to have enough willpower to get up when I wake up on the weekends.

I'm doing such a good job.

I’ve been going to bed between 8pm and 10pm, getting up at 8am or 9am, for the last four or five days. My body clock is almost fixed, and I’m feeling good.

Off to a bad start.

I fell asleep at 4pm yesterday, and slept until midnight. I’m going to be tired again by this afternoon. Guh.
