When do you wake up?

May 9, 2016 4:33am CST

Are you an early riser? Or the sun is already in the mid sky when you open your eyes? Well, I belong to the second category. I am a hopeless late riser, as I stay awake late at night. I know that's a very unhealthy thing to do but it has turned to a routine and I can't escape it that easily! So, when do you wake up?

@MayMariana You're welcome. Hope you have a good sleep!

Oh no that's something to worry about! Probably you should get some medication, or you may get sick. Yeah I go to bed late but I also wake late. Though it's not healthy, I make sure that I have enough sleep.

I'm a morning person and I usually wake up at 6am. I have the need to sleep early because of the early morning wake up time.

"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." Too bad I'm unable to follow Franklin's advice. I stay up until midnight and the baby drags me out of bed around 7am. He's a strong kid. If not for his demands to be changed, fed, and dressed for the day (Sheesh! What does he think I AM? His "keeper" or something? Oh. Yeah. Hm.) then I'd be able to sleep in to, at least, 8 am.

Hahaha! That's really sweet and sad at the same time. It is hard to be a mother, you do not have time for yourself. But I guess the joy a child brings is worth the sacrifice.

@Dishari Oh, yeah. It's fun to joke about but I really do love all my little blessings. They're worth the lack of sleep, cold meals, and endless days without a decent shower... I wouldn't have it any other way.

That is the point. Whenever you sleep, make sure you get enough of it. Then perhaps it won't disturb your health.

Why should that be unhealthy? It's a myth created by early risers. Don't believe it! Fight back! :-) If you sleep between 6 and 8 hours as an adult, it doesn't matter when you do it.

Well the response to that depends on the person’s age. A school child will always be a early morning person. A college student living in the hostels mostly happen to be in your category and once out in the big bad world they have to assume responsibilities of their parents and raise to the morning breeze and I tell you with experience it’s awesome!

Yeah you are right. I am a college student and my late morning classes are partly responsible for this routine. I assume that will be wonderful, plus staying healthier will automatically make you happier.

@Dishari - I worked throughout the dark hours for many years (2300 to 0700 work shift) and, thus, I still like to go to bed very late and arise also very late in the mornings. Works for me. Have fun today. Gus Kilthau
