Sleeping Patterns

Santa Fe, New Mexico
August 15, 2015 7:13am CST
Well, I fell asleep with a book last night, way too early (8:30). So I got up at 4:30 am, an ungodly hour to wake up, I must say. Now I suppose I'll fall asleep early again tonight How susceptible are you to changing sleeping patterns? Do you have trouble getting back to a sleeping pattern that you prefer?

I have a lot of trouble with sleep. I wake up at 4 often when I didn't go to sleep until close to midnight. Frustrating!

During the week my sleeping pattern is usually the same. On the weekends it changes depending how late i stay up. But if i have company im usually in bed early when the kids go and wake up early but never at 4am. The earliest i'm up is between 7-8am. I hope you get a nap in today

Any time my sleeping pattern gets interrupted I have a terrible time sleeping.

I prefer to get up early. I would prefer to go to bed late, too, but that doesn't usually work out for long. Then I end up falling asleep during the day and that's no good.

I've never really been much for taking naps unless I was really sick. And yep, nodding off inadvertently in the middle of the day usually doesn't work well, especially if you're at work lol

I often get so tired and fall asleep early. Yesterday I slept while I was posting here .. When I sleep early I always end up waking way too early.

I'm lucky that I can function on just a little sleep so my sleeping patterns are quite reliable as I tend to have no problems falling asleep when I'm tired!

I do not sleep in well. If I went to bed by 8:30 then 4:30 would be perfect for me. When hubby was working one job that was about the hours we kept. Or he kept. I stayed up late but got up early.

I go through a cycle. I have always been a night person and enjoy being up while everyone is a sleep and it is peaceful and quiet. Feel like I have the whole world all to myself. hehe But I have gotten into a cycle where I stay up later and later until I am up all night and into the mid morning before nodding off. I do that for several days then I fall asleep just after dinner for awhile and sleep about four or five hours and am up at 3a. or 4a. and up for four or five hours and then sleep again Then I start going to bed between 11p. and 1a. and am up during the day and sleep what people term as 'normal hours' for awhile.

Oh yes if I do get some sleep and my pattern is interrupted I have a very hard time getting back on the same schedule again.

I'm going to try to find a thriller to watch tonight and see if it keeps me up late enough..

If it is quiet in the neighborhood, I can sleep in, but the least little bit of noise and that's it for the day. I'm up and there's no way I can get back to sleep.

I have no trouble sleeping at all. I think that is because I work nights and I am tired when i get home in the morning.

I have restless legs so my sleeping pattern is very erratic.

I never had problems with falling asleep in the past. Lately I have had issues.

I have no trouble adjusting to different sleeping patterns.
