Lately I’ve been going to sleep a lot earlier than i used to, i used to go to bed about 1 or 130 each night and now i find myself nodding off at 1030 is there anything i can do to stay awake longer?
My diet has changed i used to eat a lot of snacks late at night and I’ve cut that out is that a factor? other than caffeine what can i do to stay up later?
i dont think there is anything wrong with going to bed that early. I have been able to start going to bed at 11 pm and actually fall asleep.
Your body is sending you a message. You need the sleep. So sleep, gezunter heit. Just as an aside, I would have a checkup and make sure there is no underlying situation goin on.
The Goq,s question was “is there anything i can do to stay awake longer?” now I don’t have any advice for you TG but to the other commentors, she doesnt seemm to ask about the messages her body is sending her…she wants to find out about ways that will make her stay awake longer!
The Goq, i don’t know why I just assumed youere a girl so my sincere apologies if your a boy! 🙂
he’s is!
I do think a late night snack could give you a boost to stay up but i cant imagine that cutting them out made you now sleepy earlier. What will work is exercise. Even a brisk walk around the block should help. Just remember not to exercise within 3 or 4 hrs of bedtime.
It isn’t healthy to have too little sleep each night.
COFFEE! AND FOOD. AND COFFEE! AND MORE COFFEE!
I also have a sleep problem. I get home from work so exhausted and I still have tests to study for. How do I manage it all?
More coffee. Try to skip the sugar at night if you want to stay up later.
Why didn’t they close the school when you lost power and let you go home?
Rambam says we need 8 hours a sleep; other poskim say about the same, I believe. Getting too little sleep reduces your brainpower, lowers your mood, makes you irritable, suppresses your immune system, and makes you a more dangerous driver.
If you’re getting enough sleep and you still want to stay up later, then taking a shower or getting a little exercise (a few sit ups, push ups, or jumping jacks for example) are two things that help. I would never drink caffeine or exercise at night because I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep even hours later, but everybody’s different.
The Goq asked because he wants to stay up later.
I used to stay up ’til around 2am; now I’m tired by 9:30pm.
I went for blood work :-O
hi Goq!! 🙂
So…howz the late night vigil going?
Goq~ I still lurk, lol ;-D

i would reccomend taking omega 3 from fish oil. that has given me extra energy.
