Is this the best way to fix a sleeping problem?

I'm guessing not. But I keep going to sleep later, and later... and later... and eventually it's so late it messes up my sleep pattern completely. So I stay up all night and then I wake up and go to sleep at normal times again.

Yeah, I know I'm crazy...

I do it all the time. I'm doing it now 🙂

staying up all night is the answer. I usually have that same problem in January. I just stay up a whole day and night, with NO NAPS! After that I am good for another year.

That is utterly and completely *normal*

I'm doing that now...heck i forgot to sleep 2 days in a row :|

Exactly, but see, for me.. it's about every month. 😛

Nah. It happens to me too.

I'll typically go to bed 60-120 minutes later each day. So my sleep schedule kinda works its way around the clock like that. I always sleep for ~8-9 hours.

But if I need or want to be up for some reason, I'll stay up an extra 4-6 hours(being up for 20 - 22 hours) so I can wake up at the right time or whatnot.

Exactly! i have to be up @ 8..i came home from work around 2-3 AM...so...time to stay up 😀

Im like that too.
I used to go to sleep at 11pm get up at 8am. Thats 8 -9 hours sleep.
Sounds good eh 🙂 ... but then it was 11:30, 12, 1, 1:30, 2.... you get the picture.
Noticed I started getting tired all the time, and even if i got a good sleep on Friday night (eg 14 Hours) 🙂, I was still yawning my butt off the next day. Im still doing it though so I havent found the answer.

I thnk you should do what u suggested.
Dont sleep one night and then the next night crash at a normal time you want to start sleeping at. Sort of like resetting your sleep pattern 🙂

Do what i do and just have a few drinks early one day, and you'll fall asleep earlier. If you're against drinking, take some benedryl, nightquil, gravol, etc instead.

Ah, well, since you're doing it, it must, therefore, be normal. Of course!
