About what time is it impossible for you to go back to sleep if you wake up?

There are things that happen during the night that wake me up. Most of the time, I can get back to sleep with little problem. However for some reason, if that something happens after 4:30 AM, then I just might as well stay up and try and discretely get something done without waking others up. Do you find there is a time for you where if you get woken up, you might as well not bother going back to sleep? Looking forward to reading your responses.

First of all I will not wake up at such weired time untill my exams are not there. sometimes I got wake up because of bad dreams. Then I will again sleep. I am so fond of sleep that I can sleep at any time and in any position. :-)

yeah i usually have to wake up at certain time which is around like 5:00 pm and it is actually to pee.I don't know why it always wakes me up around that time only and it is then impossible for me to get back to sleep and i can't help it too as my physician has advised me to drink as much water as i can so i just drink plenty and plenty of water irrespective of the time. I know it makes me compromise with my sleep but there is no way out.

Yes, your bladder does tend to betray you at he weirdest times. I know the feeling. Even if I did not drink something, it still automatically fills up in the middle of the night. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

If I wake up at three in the morning it will be really impossible for me to get a good sleep again and it is just because I take time to think of something interesting which will help me sleep well too. And then I take a book out of the book shelf and read till I fall asleep. And when morning comes to wake up I am in deep sleep.

I tend to read as well. Sometimes that works but a lot of the time, I just do it to help pass the time until it is a habitable time to move around and not wake others up. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

If I get woken up after 3 AM, I find it really difficult to get back to sleep. It sucks really. I never feel like I've gotten enough rest by that time, yet can't relax enough to get anymore.

When I wake up at that hour, it is a reminder for me to pray to God. That is the time I would be able to ask and thank God for all the blessing He has given and looking forward for the things that is yet to come. I pray that He will guide me for the rest of the day. Then unconciously, i didn't know that I fall asleep already and I would wake again at around 7:00 o'clock.

Excellent, that's good. I wish I was like that. In the back of my mind, part of the problem is that by the time I get to sleep, it might be time to get up. So that kind of mentally defeats me. Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

there is no real time that i cannot go back to sleep, but it just depends on how tired i am. sometimes i will wake up at 6 and not be able to go back to sleep but sometimes i can.

Hi,megamatt.I am not sure about it.But it seems that I always feel difficult to go back to sleep if I wake up.Sometimes I have a nightmare,I will wake up with scary then I never have the chance to go back to sleep.But sometimes I just wake up for no reason and it's too early then I will go back to sleep but it need a lot time .
