Sleepyhead
I have a habit of procrastinating at bedtime. I don't have a set bedtime, and I stay up when I'm sleepy because I feel like I'm giving up when I go to bed. I want to squeeze in that bit more fun, work, whatever (usually less-than-satisfying fun). There are occasional days when I am too sick to function the next morning, headachy and sometimes even naseous with diarrhea or throwing up. That's my body's reaction to extreme overdoing. And then there are days when I simply can't drag myself out of bed in the morning or can't get moving. The key for me is not when I get up, but when I go to bed.
So tonight I commit to being in my bed with the book closed by 11:00. Hah, we'll see! I already feel myself saying, but what about tasks x y and z and my me-time? Squelch it, dearie, you can only do so much with the time allotted to you. Do a little bit of one task and a little bit of reading and get to bed!

So did you sleep on time ? Why do you have to push yourself so much ? Do you need to work a lot to sustain yourself ?

No, I didn’t turn out the light until about 11:30. I had worked and procrastinated until 10:45, and insisted on my right to have fun (felt like a teenage rebel). I only turned out the light because I couldn’t keep my eyes open AND my husband reminded me of how tired I was yesterday. It felt like giving up, losing, having to do what I didn’t want to do. I brought my book with me to work today just in case… (and my son woke me up at 6:15 this morning; great).
I feel entitled to have some fun every evening, and pursue leisure even if I have unmet responsibilities. There is a difference between healthy self-care and compulsive escapism; I suspect that my pursuit of fun is more in the 2nd category. When I get out of the habit of pursuing leisure, it’s usually because I fall into workaholism, the other end of the spectrum. It’s really hard for me to find balance.
I push myself. When I get home from work I am on-duty with my son until he goes to bed. Then I try to accomplish personal tasks and/or waste time avoiding them, along with that pursuit of leisure. I rarely allow myself to have time to drool (let my mind wander), which is something my busy brain needs.

Hi Sarito, I just noticed
Hi Sarito,
I just noticed this post. 10 pm - 9.30 am = 11.5 hours. There is no way 10 pm is late nite. Cut it down to 8 hrs so that if you sleep at 10 pm you should get up at 6 am.
hi titan
it's not any of my business but some of us can't go to sleep right after working on something or studying. We need a little time for ourselves to relax first.
Not to mention you usually don't fall asleep as soon as your head hit the pillow so 10pm - 6am rarely is 8hours of sleep.

Hi Sarito, It seems your
Hi Sarito,
It seems your work demands u to sleep late at night. In that case it is completely OK to wake up late. It is important to have at least 6 - 8 hours of sleep. In fact if this is routine 4 u, is waking up early really feasible 4 u ?
Hi Titan
Good question. I find that I need at least 7 hours of sleep. Trying to decipher when I actually need the sleep and when I just don't want to get up!
