Night Owl

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?

I’ve had insomnia since childhood, so my sleep schedule has never truly been normal.

But lately, I’ve been able to follow my own circadian rhythm more closely. I usually don’t get truly sleepy until 2:00-3:00 am, and I find my brain tends to be more creative after midnight for some reason.

I also require a long amount of sleep to feel truly rested, so ideally if I go to sleep at 2:00 I like to wake up around 10:00-11:00 am.

I find it interesting how sleep patterns vary from person-to-person. My husband, for example, is very much an early bird who rises with the sun and requires less hours of sleep than I do.

So currently, I fall asleep around 2:00 am and rise around 10:00 am if my schedule allows it.
