Are You A Day Or Night Person?

[stardreamer]

I am curious about the schedules people keep and whether there is any prevalence of daytime people vs. nighttime people who have depression. I'm also curious if there is a larger number of people who have no real schedule and their bedtime/wake-up times are all over the place, in people who have depression. Discuss!

 

I think you can make multiple selections.

My schedule is a mess because of persistent insomnia. I work 9-5 but my brain doesn't seem to have received that memo. Anytime I have off work I almost automatically revert to night owl behaviour and sleeping in late.

It varies as I try to keep a "normal" schedule, but I'm definitely more of a night person so I end up staying up later and later until I go to bed at sunrise and wake up around noon. I then eventually "fix" my schedule and the cycle repeats.

[stardreamer]

yeah... my schedule gets so messed up sometimes, especially when i have a lot of work to do. i would like it to be a "wake up at noon" "go to bed around 3 or 4 am" type thing.
i don't like trying to sleep after the sun comes up, it's a lot harder. i like to at least fall asleep while it's dark

I'm at my best with a regular day schedule.  Insomnia is a problem sometimes.  I have a couple of part-time jobs so I need to be as awake and aware as possible.

I'm more of a night person, If I could I'd love to sleep the day away & be up right through the evening.

It's a mess...

[freckledface]

I voted other because most of the time I go to bed between 11pm-2 or 3am and am up by 7. On the weekends, I go to bed around 2am and am up by 9 or earlier.

 

I've always been a night person.

[Ingey1968]

Mine varies but usually I'm up late and wake up early

[shio]

I'm a morning person. So I'd rather get stuff done during the day because I make my evening to be me time. So I like going to bed around 8 , watch tv in bed until i fall asleep around 10

[sassyintrovert]

Morning person. I try to wake up anywhere from 6-8 depending on what time I went to sleep the night before, which varies a lot depending on whether or not I worked, have an exam coming up, couldn't sleep, etc.. But I generally feel a lot better having extra (quiet) time in the morning, and watching the sunrise.

I would say all over the place but I have gotten my insomnia and sleep pattern under control. Thank you seroquel/melatonin combination. Now I am a daytime person. 

[law055car]

day time I'm in bed at 7:30pm some times earlyer and I sleep until 4:30/5

I usually go to sleep around midnight and sleep until 9 or 10 am.. which is way too long, but probably because of my current meds. Otherwise I try to get up around 8 am, which is very rare, sometimes I go to sleep an hour or two after midnight.

 

I also can't really do much for school until it's dark, I don't know why. I have much more will to do anything obligatory after dark.

I really used to be a night owl.I would get more stuff done during the night.At my worst I was only sleeping every other day.That all changed when I started getting anxiety attacks at night....then I started to dread the onset of the evening.Now I go to bed almost every night.I usually would try to get to bed at nine.But lately sometimes that`s been different.Sometimes I can`t get to bed until around midnight.At the moment I`ve become a daytime person.

Around the clock person, sleep is not offen.

[20YearsandCounting]

It varies. I'm a 'whenever I get started' person. My worst time of day is morning, but I have to work during the day. I stay up late because I don't want to go to sleep and 'start all over again'.

[mulberrypie]

I'd have to say night. That's when I get the most done. I feel slightly better later on in the day.

night person

I used to be a night owl. Looking back a lot of the art (writing/drawing) I've made has been in the evening and night hours. That's still when I seem to have the greatest creative energy. Working a Mon-Fri job from 7am-3pm however, has forced me to become a daytime person by necessity. But sure enough, when I take time off, I slip back into my old night owl ways.

[sober4life]

I guess I'm a night person.  I hardly ever sleep.

[Wisteria]

I'm an evening person, kinda tired in morning & afternoon. Evenings and nights are when my brains really start working.

[Corbin]

I'm a night owl, but I can sometimes go to bed early.
