Sleeping schedule
I’m having a lot of troubles keeping a regular sleeping schedule. I keep trying and trying but it just doesn’t work. I do school from home and don’t have a job right now so theres nothing in the way. I just seem to go to bed at random times every night and wake up a different time like everyday. I cant stand it, once I get it on track it lasts for like a couple of days then messes up. For example… last night I went to bed at 10 PM and tonight its now 3:30 AM and I’m still not sleeping, thats how much it changes. I just toss and turn in my bed. I’m not under stress or anxious about anything, thats not it. This has been going on for a couple of years now. Is there something I can do to regulate my sleep schedule? I just want to be able to fall asleep around the same time every night and wake up around the same time everyday, I don’t know how people manage. I don’t eat meat much, maybe once a week. And I also don’t drink milk, could not having these things be effecting my body?
I was just going to post some advice but it looks like chaoticrevalation has done a good job and covered most of the things I was going to post plus more.
Take note of it, it is good advice.
PS Keep the bedroom just for sleeping and the ‘other’ stuff.
Try not to lay in bed reading, watching TV etc. Get your body used to the fact that when you lay on that bed, it is time to sleep.
I get this sometimes and I will often listen to talk radio on a timer so it turns itself off.
I also find talking books help as well as CD’s of wild bird song. I grew up on the edge of the country and often find bird song soothing.
My wife gets this sometimes and finds that one of those natural light boxes for S.A.D. really helps her if she uses it an hour or two a day.
A hot bath 30 mins before bed and a gradual wind down (dont read exiciting books or action movies too soon before sleeping) will generally help.
Put a little clary sage aroma on your pillow.
Maybe a hot herbal or aroma bath with candle light and a nice glass of champagne. Go on, treat yourself. You seem to have been through a lot of sh*t lately.
Finally, one of the most important things to remember is what I think chaoticrevalation mentioned, routine is so important to get a regular good nights sleep.
PPS I read a recent study in a magazine that said women are generally affected far more than men by lack of sleep. It appears to upset a womans hormonal balance even if they miss an hour of their normal sleep.
Hence, women, on average, tend to get more irritable when they miss out on sleep.
Hey, dont shoot me, I’m just the messenger! :):):)

there is a condition called chronic desynchronosis you should look into. Its a neurological problem that happens with the body’s natural time clock. Normally jet lag is the term but a more long term effect means that your body’s chemistry is not equalizing correctly.
things you could do in the mean time.
Go to bed at the SAME TIME EVERY NIGHT. This will ensure that you keep a schedule.
Set an alarm to make sure you wake up at the same time every day. This will ensure that you keep a constant waking schedule.
AVOID NIGHT SHIFT WORK! If you can get out of it do not work night shift. This toys with your body’s natural clock and confuses your sleep patterns.
Your body recuperates faster during nighttime sleep than it does in the day time.
When you sleep, make sure nothing is present to wake you up. REM is important for mental recovery.
On the issue to get to sleep,
You need to exercise during the day. Work of Excess Energy. If you are not active your energy level doesn’t do anything except either sit on your waist and thighs or dwindle in your system keeping you up. Go for a brisk walk about an hour before you hit the sack and work up a sweat and that will burn off energy or go to the gym if you have access to it. Burn off those extra calories and you will find that you are sleepier than usual.
On the medicated route.
I suggest taking a cap full of nyquil per night as hardcore sleep meds are addictive and sometimes not even needed. Nyquil makes you just drowsy enough to get to sleep.
OTC sleep meds are different for everyone but they can sometimes work.
Talk to your Doctor about your desynchronosis problems or possible insomnia issue. It happens to the best of us but it don’t have to be permanent.
Also, have your Doctor check for some hormonal imbalances and do a neurological check via CT scan or MRI if you feel it is justified. Sometimes a more serious problem can be present.
I hope this helps you.
Also try regulating your diet a little better. You need proper nutrition to live a healthy life. You might not be getting enough nutrition in your present diet. Talk to a Nutritionist or a qualified Dietician to help you out with this.
talk about a predicament I hope all is well for you.
