How to have normal sleep hours
It made me
:) Still Adjusting
 "I don't miss 4am at all!"
How I did it: The first few weeks I just kept track of my sleep hours. After that, I was working as a dog walker, and couldn't stand the thought of being asleep in bed while some poor doggy needed to go out to the bathroom. So I started getting up. I'm still pretty worn out by the end of the day, and need to work on going to bed at the *same* time every night, but I'm happy to be consistently asleep before midnight and up before 9am. Lessons & tips: Come up with a temporary responsibility you don't want to mess up on. It'll get you out of bed. |

How I did it: I stopped all sleeping medications that left me feeling hungover and drowsy and made getting up more difficult. The first night after stopping the sleep meds I did not sleep at all. As much as I wanted to I resisted the urge to take a nap during the day so that I would be tired that night. I only slept a few hours that night. That's how it went for the next couple of weeks until eventually my body started falling asleep soon after I got i… Read how I did it…

How I did it: It had gotten way out of control. I was sleeping from 8 am to 5 pm, then staying up until the next morning. I had been carrying on like this for about a month and a half. I made my mind up to stop, and sleep deprived myself for the next days to force myself to sleep at night. It worked for two days, then I relapsed. Then I went back on it two days later, and have not looked back since. I have had the te… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I just did it. You have to commit yourself to it with the intent that you have to do so every day no matter what. Of course everyone has an off day but instead of having another it's a concious effort to get right back into the routine. Having routines make life a lot less difficult. Read how I did it…

Look at me! For almost three month now I’ve been going to bed before tweelve a clock almost every night! Amazing! So I now declare myself to have pretty normal sleep hours, when I’ve been going to bed before ten in the evening I think I have really normal sleep hours because then I’ll get 8 hours of sleep every night… But this night I’ll only get 6 hour of sleep but it’s still better then 3,5 ;)
Good night to you all! xP

Got up at 10am today, went to bed at midnight last night. That’s something I’ve not done for aaaages.
It was because of lack of sleep, and it’s good to be up earlier, I had to be anyway ‘cause I’ve got deliveries to do today.

I was up all day, got up very early, was soo tired as I had had hardly any sleep… and went to Alton Towers. That was good, but unfortunately the evening was awful, I got dumped.
Anyway, then I went to bed when I got in after crying loads.
Today I woke up very early. Just did. I stayed up and I’ve been up all day. Really tired, and depressed, but I did do some good things anyway.
Well

Despite staying up very late, I managed to get up earlier today. OK it was half 1pm, but that was earlier than around half 3 or 4pm as it had been some days. I’m prob a bit more tired, but I was glad I managed to make myself stay up (I set my alarm, put it far from the bed, so then I got up switched it off, then I needed the loo anyway, so I went, and then I just stopped myself getting back in bed and going to sleep). In fact, the first thing I did was catch up on my diary which I had a few days of to do! I have to go to bed earlier tonight, because have to be up very early tomorrow, hopefully I can do it!
Hmm...

At least if I stay up late but do some useful things (which I have done) then it’s not too bad. I probably wouldn’t be able to sleep a lot earlier anyway, but sometimes I have to. Then again, I’m sure I could go to bed a bit earlier.
