What time do you go to sleep?

Im year 12 student and I have the worst sleeping patterns. I have college at 8:30 and usually get up at 7-7:15. However no matter how early I get to bed I can never get to sleep before midnight. I suffer badly throughout the day if I don't get my 8 sleep, causing me to sleep in the afternoons meaning I don't get any school work done :/

I've tried sleep hypnosis apps on my phone etc they worked for a few weeks, I would fall asleep within the first 20 mins of the recording. However now I stay awake for the whole thing..

Does anyone else have this problem and how do you deal with it? especially now that exams will be comming soon and I really don't want to miss out on my sleep.

I **** you not, I went 72 hours with 0 hours of sleep.

During school days in year 9 (had a competition with 2 mates and we had a Facebook group chat where each of us had to reply at least once every 30 minutes to prove we were awake)

I eventually fell asleep while watching the mechanic on my laptop on the sofa around 6am, I then was awoken at 8am and went to school - 88 hours of being awake with 2 hours of sleep by the time I got home and went straight to bed..

Shame you picked The Mechanic dude, once you saw the first 30 minutes, the rest of the film is obvious and boring.

Want to stay up? Come chill with me - I'm like a doctor constantly on 24 hour call with no exceptions - this last week, I started a recording session at 9am and finished at 11pm, got the last train home, slept for 2 hours, then was back in the studio at 4am, until 10pm, went through overnight mixing, until my next session where I was working 15 hours, then I went out to the pub with some mates, came back and did a 24 hour recording session with a 2 hour break, and finished with a 13 hour mastering session. Went home, (surprisingly caught my mum at the train station - she was on the inbound train, I had just got off the outbound train at 8am - who was curious as to where I'd been the last few days!), went home and slept for nearly a day,

Can't be healthy since I dropped 10 pounds in a week.

I don't think I even got to 30 minutes in :s I just remember someone was in their private swimming pool, Jason statham arrives and kills them, then Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Woaaaah

I had always heard 'horror' stories of being a doctor and having crazy shifts but didn't realise it was that bad :L

How/What/Why is that even possible

Oh I'm not a doctor - my career has NOTHING to do with medicine - that was simply a metaphor.

What I do is run a recording studio, so if a band wants to record at 1am, then I record them at 1am, simple as that.

Generally, recording studios need so much investment in them equipement-wise (a small console like an AWS948 [look it up - see the size and look at the price!] will cost $100,000. that we need to run things 24/7 to make money back.

And my rate of £80-120 an hour seems great, but you need to consider that all the equipment required (and this is regardless of the big mixing board!), starts at about £1,000 and goes up to £30,000, and you could need to buy 3 or 4 pieces of equipment for one job, it really doesn't work out as much as it seems!

LOOOOOL, I have had very little sleep (ironic eh?) So i apologise for being such a moron :L

LOOOL, 'LIKE a doctor' 'mixing session' 'studio' I think I'm actually retarded

That's some expensive *ss stuff :')

My bedtime is at 8pm

OMG how I sometimes get home at 8pm on a week day...?

I usually go to bed about 2am sometimes 4-5am and I wake up between 6-7 am. I need at least 1 cup of coffee every day to stay alive...
Occasionally I pull allnighters and go to school, I think the longest I have stayed up is about 49 hours..

Was being sarcastic :P

I usually go to bed at 10 , then fall asleep by 11.
