health - sleeping patterns

Does anybody else have this problem? I go to lectures during the day, and then i sleep from 5pm to midnight, then spend the next 8 or so hours awake. It has been like this for a couple of weeks now... :mad:

part of uni life i find,

yeah i have sleeping issues, more irregular patterns/times of sleeping like yourself, not lack of sleep, perhaps too much :eek:

i slept for 21 hours a few days ago, thats my record.

other times i dont feel tired at all, even at 4/5am, sometimes i do all nighters as i dont feel tired.

so yeah, your not alone!

Yeah. I've done it all. I've woken up at every hour of the day having had a full sleep before hand and stuff. That includes crazy times like 1am, I've easily gone over 48 hours without sleep and stuff, I've slept for many days without seeing sunshine (which drove me partially nuts - not clinically but nuts all the same).

Yes! I've had maybe ten hours sleep max since Sunday, not been to bed at all tonight cos I'm working on an essay, and I'm not tired. I look tired though, I'm all pale and have tiredy eyes. I feel quite awake though. I'm kind of hoping for an early night tomorrow though, but apparantly my flat is having a house party, so that might not be on the cards. Sometimes I sleep loads though, and could manage around 12 every night without a problem. But at the moment I'm very non-sleepy and very nocturnal. It's strange.

Aww, I would but I'm stuck in essay hell right now and I suspect that that may distract me further.... if I finish it quite soon then I will, because there's no point in me going to bed tonight really, because it's due in in a few hours!

Uni does screw up your sleeping. I had a 2 week phase of going to bed at about 1 and waking up at 7am and couldn't get back to sleep. This week I've been ill and have slept around 11 hours every night. It's been lovely.

my boyfriend is becoming nocturnal. he gets up at 2pm, and is then up until 7am which obviously means he completely misses lectures... i am trying to convince him that he needs to make his sleeping pattern coincide with other people (esp me!) and lectures!

My sleep pattern isn't all that good at the moment either... i keep trying to go to sleep about 10:30 ish, and end up waking up about 1 because i don't feel right, and then i can't get back to sleep till 3/3:30, and have to get up about 6:30 most mornings... I wish i knew what to do...
