When do you go to bed?

Chris, if Josh actually got through your whole post, I think you might just have done him a favor...

Lately, around 2 am. It feels wrong to go to bed before midnight, bad habit. I get really tired quickly, because there are so many sounds in my room. My hanged clock on the wall is making very loud ticking noises. My oven on the wall is living a life of its own, with weird, but LOUD, sounds all the time. Lastly, I'm having my alarm clock right next to my pillow, which also makes ticking sounds. I count every three or four tick, and see how far I get before I lose count. Usually pretty tired after that.

I have no trouble getting up in the morning..... if I HAVE to. EXam 0800? No problem. Should get up 0800 to do homework, but doesn't really need to? No way I'm up.

hahahahhaha...

Well, um, you didn't expect a "how to sleep" guide to be RIVETING did you?

That was funny as hell, camz. 10 points.

Manaheim, have you ever tried to induce lucid dreaming? Being aware that you're dreaming, thus being able to completely control them?

Apparently you feel very relaxed when you awake, and the dreaming experience would be awesome. Just imagine, doing whatever you felt like.

"I wanna breath under water: doable"
"I wanna be able to fly: doable"
"I wanna travel into space, eat a good dinner with the president, and fly back down: doable"
"Female members of this forum: doa.. cremt cremt"

Endless possibilities!

Well - I stayed up late, wasn't late to work, and didn't have a hangover. I guess I won't worry about getting to bed 'on time' so much.

I'll try to learn to clear my mind too, mana. It's hard to wind down after work... I work weekends, three 12 hour days - so I don't have much free time after work before it's time to start getting ready for bed...

I just found out that I'll be getting moved back to the regular day shift next month though... I sort of have mixed feelings about that. I did volunteer for the shift I'm on now, after-all. 4 days off is pretty nice.

It depends... Some days I get off a 36 hour shift at 0600, others I get off a 12 hour shift at 2200... So my sleep schedule is all over the place. And there's no guarantee of sleep on the 36.

I can do it sometimes, but very rarely.

haha... good luck with it. sounds like I nailed it, though... clearing your mind. I swear what 90% of the world needs is probably meditation, not drugs.

I'm usually in bed between 1-2 and up between 7-8. Some day I'm tired enough to go bed around 11 and I always feel great the next day but I can't bring myself to do that consistently.

 

[IByte]

Usually I go to bed 11 or midnight, on weight lifting days or if I working around the house much earlier. But thanks to physics and Java, sleep is overrated.

 

[Jaemie]

Any time between 10pm and 5am, depending on what time I have to get up. Ya, that's not so good I guess.

Somewhere between 1-4 AM.

[Josh66]

What's wrong with saying y'all?




I think a lot of people are missing the point of this post. I don't care what time you go to bed... The question is, do you go to bed because of what time it is, or because you are tired?
