Do you have a regular bedtime?

[kdonnel]

Last night at 5:30pm I was prepping veggies for a stirfry and overheard my in laws talking in the basement.

My mother-in-laws was going to bed.

I know as you age you rise earlier and get sleepy earlier but I just don't see myself ever wanting to head to bed at 5:30.

On a weeknight I typically make it to bed between 10:30 and 11:30.

On a weekend it is likely11:30 to 1:00.

I’ve never had a regular bedtime.
But I do need to make an effort to go to bed earlier.
The later I stay up, the harder it is to get to sleep.

Regular bedtime, no. But usually I'm in bed between 8:30 & 9PM latest.

I do - 10 PM. I might stay up a little later on weekends, but it depends. I get up at 6 every day, so 8 hours of regular sleep. That is how I function well.

I go to bed around 11-midnight, sometimes as late as 1am. I wake up after about 4 hours of sleep, and often can't go back to sleep, so I have to balance it all out. About every 10 days or so I'll be totally exhausted and spend the evening on the couch, sinking into the cushions and just relaxing, but if I let myself fall asleep before 10, I'll be up around 3:30, no matter how tired I am. I'm working on this with my PCP and wellness coach, as I really need more, unbroken sleep.

Nah - I'm kind of all over the place with bedtimes.

Ehhh...on weeknights sometime between 830 and 945 is when I lay down, but then I scroll for another 30-60 mins. I used to stay up later on the weekends, but it's getting harder and harder to stay up past 10:30ish.

I guess I should have also asked about the morning since they seem like they should be intertwined.

M-F I get up at 8am, benefit of working from home.

On the weekends I don't set an alarm unless something special is going on that weekend. I tend to be up and out of bed by 9am but it is not unusual to not be out until 11am.

My DH and I have a regular bedtime at 9:30pm every night, and I get up at 5am every day - even on the weekends because I like to be at the gym by 7am.

 

[MrsJackSparrow4Life]

I am usually in bed by 9:30-10:00 but I rarely get to sleep until 11:00ish. Usually I wake up around 6:00 am, even on the days I don't have to set an alarm.

My retired parents have opposite schedules from each other. Dad is asleep by 9:00 pm at the latest and up by 7:00 am. Mom goes to sleep around 2:00-3:00 am and sleeps until 11:00 am.

Most days I'm up around 6 or 6:15, weekends usually as well. Once in a while on weekends I'll be in bed till 7ish.

 

[nancipants]

Usually between 9-10 pm. My alarm goes off at 6 during the week and on Sunday for my long run.

 

[kanerf]

Normally in bed by 10. I like to watch Gutfeld's monologue before I drop off to sleep.

 

[TiggerTrigger]

Truth be told, I don't sleep well. Most nights, unless something crazy happens, I just force myself to go to bed and hope I get sleepy enough sooner rather than later. On the flipside, I have implemented naptime to help make up for my sleep deficit and that's pretty consistent! I know some would say to cut the nap to help sleep at night but I tried and not only did it not help, it impacted my workouts, morning walking, and eating/hunger.

Since we retired, we go to bed most nights about 930 pm. I seem to have a lot of appointments (Doctor, car oil changes) at 8 am, so up at 630 am those days, otherwise I don't stumble out of bed until 8:15 am. No alarm, I just seem to always wake up at the same time.
For the previous 13 years, 7 pm was bedtime to be up at 2 am to be at work at 3 am
For the 25 years before that, bed time was about 830 AM, and up at 5 PM, because I worked graveyard shift, 11 pm to 7 am

 

[Kitty 34]

Between 8 and 9:00. I get up around 6:30.

 

[Meriweather]

Lights out between 8:30 and 9.
Up at 4.....internal alarm just gets me up.
Last night didn't get to bed until 11 and still up at 4
