As someone with ADHD I find it’s a common experience for many that we stay up all night. I’ve fought that in the past but now I kinda feel like I should just accept it. Go to bed late, get up late. However that’s not very conducive to a normal business routine.
How do you all handle your mornings and nights? Is it worth it even to try to change?
So is 2-10 (about what I default to) highly abnormal?
When I work the best I find I can do is 1-9.
8 hours sleep is pretty normal but your inner clock is off a bit. There are tons of reasons I’ve heard off over the time (not an expert, just hating alarm clocks).
Some of those reasons are:
If any of these fit for you, try working on it and see, if it changes after a few days/weeks.
If not: Chronobiology is still kind of a young field and not all doctors know about it. You could try to give your local university a call/visit if they have chronobiologists. They will have excellent sources and probably can name doctors near you or even might be interested in you as subject to study.
The reason I post here on neurodivergence is because, yes I know these things, but also I can’t stick to a habit for more than a week that requires executive function. I will always relapse on exercise, diet, sleep, work, or social life. Idk how people do all 5.
