Odd Sleeping Pattern

Zeus · 01-25-2010, 04:53 AM

Ok so I am currently stuck in the strangest sleeping pattern... I sleep in most of the day, wake up mid afternoon.... Stay up all night... have breakfast... and go back to sleep.

I tried to snap out of it (I've been in them before) by pulling an all-nighter and just going business as usual during the day, and just going to sleep that next night on time... problem was I never got tired

I ended up ALMOST pulling back to back all nighter's without meaning too..................................

Figured there had to be some good all-nighter stories with the big college crowd on here, feel free to share

This is the natural schedule for my body, too. Always has been. I've tried for years to correct it to no avail. Every once in a while I can get into a somewhat normal pattern but it never lasts very long. It's a real pain the patootie to need to be in REM when the rest of the world is just getting started. It wasn't so bad when I was younger because my body could still function without sleep. Not anymore, no way, no how. Hope you can get yourself straightened out.

As for all-nighter stories... they were fun when I was younger, now I just get to listen my hubby and kids snore lol.

I recently worked a 8am to 5p shift, went to a party, left at 2a, dropped off the girl and then went to work at 4am, stayed up the next day until 6 in the morning at another party. Got 2 hours of sleep, back to work and then kind of went back to normal.

That was me about 1 month ago. I was on that schedule for 3.5 years. Ever since we started working out I was able to start going to sleep at 8 at night, wake up at 6 in the morning. We're at midnight to 10 in the morning now. Working out does wonderings

Mom, even before I was born, said I was a certifiable night owl... Wife now subscribes to that theory, no matter how hard I try. Funny thing is, when I worked in Egypt, 9 hours difference, I went to bed at a normal time and got up with no problem... for Egyptian hours, It was still late night time over here...so the hours didn't really change, just my location did...

Sounds like you need to move to someplace that agrees with your internal clock...
...Europe or the Far East, maybe? You won't suffer jet lag.

I was just sharing my story, I have no intention of moving anywhere else, except to a retirement home in about 50 years...when they pry me out of that 2059 Camaro with the Flux Capacitor Regulated Warp drive engine.

I'll deal with my clock, it's served me almost 48 years so far...

But thanks for the recommendation...
