sleep rythms?

Do YOU get enough sleep? Number of Brits getting by on just 3 hours

Researchers surveyed 2,000 adults and discovered the majority are not getting the amount of sleep needed to function properly.

i know i gotta sleep twice a day at irregular times, putting me in a completely unpredictable day night rythm cycle for the past decade or so already, which is sustainable only because i'm my own boss.
how about you folks?

I have delayed sleep phase syndrome. I get tired around 3 am. I/2 my family has advanced sleep phase syndrome. They can't stay awake past 9pm, but are up at 4 am all bright-eyed and bushy tailed. I can call all my family members at 4am. Half are going to bed and half are getting up.

Mine did too, because they worked. But retirement allowed for a more natural adjustment to the clock.
Midnight to 7 or 8 am is the normal sleep phase.

Yeah, mine already got skewed to 7pm to 4am sleeping when I was 16 to 18, delivering newspapers between 5am and 6am...

Everyone should ask their doctor for a sleep test... sleep is so important...

I usually only sleep 3-4 hours and I'm refreshed and ready to go. Maybe 6 if I had a really tough day and overworked myself. It's a genetic condition called short sleeper syndrome.

The only time I sleep more than 6 hours is after I stay up for multiple days in a row geeking out on coke/meth.

I work the middle shift, 10-6:30, on weekdays...and usually the opening shift 6:2:30 on weekends.

In bed between 11am and 1am most days.

Up between 4:55am and 5:45am seven days a week, unless there's an anomaly that lets me sleep in, which is maybe once every two weeks, sometimes longer. If that happens, I may stay in bed as late as 10am, but not usually. More like 8:30.

My wife works at 6:30am Mon-Fri, so I'm the one who gets our son up, gives him breakfast and takes him to school by 7:25. When I get back to the house, I clean up and pack my lunch and take a shower before work.

My son gets home by bus around 3pm, and my wife around the same time. She gives him a snack and often they both have an afternoon catnap. I don't get home until around 7:30 or so. She's usually helping him with homework then and I'll fire up dinner and then spend a little time in my studio jamming a bit. We eat and then chill awhile over some mutually chosen You Tube videos, clean up and then get ready for bed.

I get two days off, usually on weekdays. I still have to get my son up for school though. That's why I rarely get to sleep in. My wife and son do on Sat and Sun though. Lucky them.

I have/had the same problem, I get it straightened out from time to time but then fall back into habits that cause relapse, I am retired so it isn't hard for me to work around, right now I am sleeping on a regular nightly routine but that will probably change.
