I really wanna start going to sleep earlier


Question Posted Tuesday January 15 2008, 8:00 am

Ok, this might be a little long. It really makes me wanna cry though. Ever since I left public school to be homeschooled, I've stayed up all night, and then slept all day the next day. For instance, I'm up now. I'm about to be going to sleep because my stomach hurts really bad, but this is the usual time I go. It's 7:50 in the morning. I really don't want my boyfriend to end up breaking up with me someday due to this fucked up schedule. I've just been so used to it for so long that I can't ever get to sleep at a reasonable time. And I usually do need more than 8 hours a night, or else I can't wake up for shit. It's really upsetting me. I got sleeping pills from walgreens with my boyfriend, but these ones are chewable. I needed chewable because I can't swallow pills, but they're so nasty. I can't stand the taste of them. So now I'm wanting ones I can swallow. Has anyone ever been in this position? My parent's won't really take me to a doctor. They know that this is all because I'm just used to being up at these hours. I'm aware that I'm gradually gonna have to start going to sleep a little earlier each night, and waking up a little earlier each day. Does anyone have any really good ideas for what I could do? Keep in mind I've been homeschooled ever since I started highschool. I'm in 11th grade right now. So it's been years. I'm a damn vampire and I need help. I constantly feel sick too and this is very unhealthy. If I had better hours I think I'd feel a lot better when I wake up. Even if I was going to sleep at 2 in the morning every night I think it'd still help me. I can never fall asleep easy, someone please help me! I need good ideas. Does anyone also know what time I should shoot for to go to sleep every night, and what time I should try to wake up everyday? Right now I've been trying to wake up at 2 everyday, and I'm trying to work my way up. I think the earlier I'd ever wanna get up is like 12:00. I haven't been waking up at 2 very easily cuz I've been feeling sick due to starting my period very soon. Does anyone know how I can actually wake up to my alarms, and just hop out of bed right away? What are some things I can do to force myself to stay up? It's already 8:00 and I have an alarm set for 2:00. I'm not getting as much sleep as I wanted, but I figure if I can wake up that early tomorrow, I might be tired earlier tomorrow night. Then I'd be able to fall asleep tomorrow night. Thank you so much to anyone who answers. Please try to answer all of these questions.

i guess try what he said other things you can do is put your alarm on the other side of the room so when it goes off you have to get up to turn it off, get out of bed and get your drink right away pretty much stay mobile so you don't lay back down....or you can always call your boyfriend.... whom if he really cares for you won't EVER break up with you for such a bad reason ;) hope you feel better

There is a vitamin supplement called melatonin that you can get at any pharmacy. It allows your body to adapt to a new circadian rhythm (sleep cycle), which will let you adjust the hours that you sleep. You don't have to chew or swallow it; you suck it under your tongue and it is absorbed into the blood vessels. It has a sweet orange taste.
