Mountain Dweller’s Paradise

Ever since I lost my job in September I’ve had the worst sleep habits ever. I used to work in the mornings and my habits were regular. Now I can’t keep a regular schedule. I really like being awake during the morning hours so I keep trying to rearrange my life so that’s possible, but instead I stay awake longer and longer at night until I’m falling asleep at dawn.

Right now I’m back to waking up early and working the morning hours. I wonder how long it will last. My SO seems to like having me sleep in so that he can use my computer all morning. Today I woke up just after midnight and have been working ever since. It is just after 10 am now. When he wakes up I’ll let him use the computer while I go back to sleep for a couple hours.

I looked for information on circadian rhythm disorders. I don’t think I have one because when I need to wake up, I’ll do it - even if I don’t have enough sleep.
