Fix my sleeping cycle

handsome · #1 07-08-2005, 07:58 AM

I've been up since Thursday 5pm (yesterday afternoon). It is now Friday 8am, so I've been up 13 hours. My eyes feel really drowsy and mentally I don't feel so sharp, but my body still has a lot of pep.

In any case, I'm not too good at fixing my schedule, so I need you guys to keep me accountable and offer some suggestions. I need to be awake at 8:30am on Monday. Thanks

I just sat here and blinked a few times after reading this. You are a woman with a vagina.

If you wake up at 7 AM, do you go to bed at 8 PM?

Oops.. my math is no g00t. I've been up 15 hours. I usually try to get 8 hours of sleep so ideally, if I wanted to wake up at 7am, I'd go to sleep at 11pm.

2 options:

1) Use whatever caffeine/stimulants you can to keep yourself up until 7-8 pm. You'll hit the hay and sleep for 12-14 hours...and be ok.

2) Take a nap...set your alarm for say, 1-2 pm. Then find a friend with Ambien and take two at 10-11 pm.

Don't be such a pussy. Being awake for 15 hours is nothing.

No kidding. On any normal workday I'm awake for 17-18 hours. Grow some balls.
