How much of this is just the natural consequences of aging? Humans' sleep patterns do tend to shift as you age - teens and 20s naturally want to go to bed and get up later, and elderly folks go to bed early and wake up early. What you're experiencing might just be due to your naturally changing circadian rhythms.
- simonsarris 7y agoThat's possible, but it seems unlikely, as it was a conscious decision made in one day when I moved/necessitated by heating. If it was aging, I would expect it to at least be gradual, or unconscious, or something.
- Darkphibre 7y agoI'll second this finding. I'm not getting younger, sure... but I can still go to a party convention and average 3hrs sleep a night for 5 days, or "decide" to play Beat Saber until 2AM. The reality is that if it's important, you'll make time to go to bed earlier. It takes a while for the body to hit restful sleep so early (and using blackout curtains / dawn clocks have been pivotal). For me it was wanting to start working out in a particular morning class... I immediately shifted from midnight to 9:30-10 to give myself the extra time in the morning.
