Brehs, I've fucced up my sleep cycle. Help.

[Easy-E]

I went to "bed" at 4am CDT...woke up at 4pm CDT 2 hours ago.



A few days ago, I woke up at 2pm CDT and standed up until 3 pm the next day.

Last week; I stayed up for about 22 hours straight.



How do you fix your sleep cycle back to normal?

The only thing that was keeping me waking up around 9 am or 10 am was wanting to go to Chick Fila.

You're going to have to.try to go to bed by midnight tonight and then get up at like 8 tomorrow.

You might have to cop some melatonin to do it.

Yea, I was thinking the same.

And then go on a 5am to 9pm wake schedule.

I thought I'd get to bed "on time" last night.

Do like a 20-30 hour streak then crash at 7pm

if 4AM is your new “bedtime” then wake up early @ about 8 or 9AM...you’ll be dogshyt tired for the rest of the day but in 1-2 days that should correct your pattern...the 1st day go to bed @ 9PM if you’re feeling dead tired...your body might not tho since you’re used to going to sleep @ 4AM...if so repeat it again and stay up to 4AM and wake up 8/9AM...you should definitely be tired enough the 2nd nite to fall asleep @ 9PM and stay asleep until 5AM

I often fukk my sleep cycle up and that works best for me...I’ve tried staying up 24+ hours in order to try going to bed @ a “normal” time but I’ll still wake up in 4 hours which will eventually cause me to fukk up the cycle

went to bed at 4am and woke up at 4pm? breh if you need that much sleep might be a health issue to be honest...5 hours and im good, 6 TOPS

Yoo same here my sleep cycle is completely upside down now. I’ve been off(paid) since Apr 1st because of big Rona, and so most nights I’m just up all night and then sleeping all morning into early afternoon and wash rinse repeat. I’m loving it. Everyday has been an experience of what it feels like to be retired. It’s awesome. But I know I’m going to be going back to work soon. And I know that going to bed at 6am when I have to be to work by 7am isn’t going to work. So I’m like you, I’ve gotta fix this sh*t soon

Work out.

Whenever you wake up. Do a serious workout. If you have a treadmill, jog or walk 5k. If you have a jump rope do an hour straight. Try to do 100 pushups, 100 squats. Or download/torrent/stream a workout and complete it.

Do that within 3 hours of waking and then just do the rest of your day before you know it you'll be and can get to sleep at a decent hour and actually get quality sleep. Mad difference between sleep quality and sleep quantity.

This. Take the melatonin several hours before your predetermined bedtime and make sure you get up at the same time each morning. If you dont fall asleep by your wake up time just stay up all day the next day and try again

Thank you... I'm gonna try it. Seriously cause I can't do this anymore and I will gladly take whatever advice I get. Thanks

Sleep ALL fukkED UP

Think it was 3 when I went last night.

you don't have an anchor you care about that's put on a daily routine.

all of our time perception is centered around anchors and bookmarks that we can easilyh label by second/minute/hour/day/month/year

you wake up at this time to do this, you sleep at this time to do this, you can't wait for this time of the week, this time of the year


best thing you can honestly do is find some media you enjoy. Could be a book, music, TV show, video game, just be sure there's a sequence of it. Chapters, songs, albums....

then don't allow yourself to touch it til a certain time of the day.


CV-19 knocked your routine out of wack. You gotta create one.

Or else wait til life dictates your routine and suffer for a week or so.

At this point, I’m dependent on sleep aid, which is the same drug as Benadryl. It’s gotten worse with working from home, because I’ll be up bullshytting. When I was going to work, I had to be up in time to get the 7:10 am train. I would sleep for an hour ok the train, and I’d be good. I worked from home 2 days a week, so it wasn’t bad. Now, I’m home everyday.

I can have wine naps, but I haven’t slept without wine or sleep aids in about 5 years.

 

[LezJepzin]

I went to bed at 5am PST last night . Couldn't fall asleep until 6. Woke up around Noon

Then again, I haven't worked since March 15th
