Not A Morning Person

I've been trying for years to be a morning person. I've tried going to bed before 10pm but I lay in bed awake for a few hours or so. I have a difficult time getting up before 8am and since I need to get up for work, I try to get my body into waking up early and feeling good about it. It's been several years since I've tried being a "morning" person and every day, I struggle to get up and every day, I am rushing to get out the door.

How do you "morning" people do it?

I'm the same way. For years I worked afternoons but now it looks like I will have to get a morning job. I hate it. I like staying up all night and sleeping all day.

I'm a night owl, stuck in a day job! it sucks, I hate waking up before its even light outside? waking upto getting ready for work when its still dark out sucks. getting up early sucks so bad especially my wife works afternoons, so she doesn't get home till around 10 pm, so we never goto bed early, but even if it was different I'd still fall asleep late in the night and dread getting up early for work everyday! lol

Im the same way cheery.
i hate when i try to go to bed 'early' and i sit and squirm around for an hour or so.
thats why i usually have the AC on. the sound is calming >.>..so is marijuana ;)

Yeah. I'm not a morning person either. On occasion I will wake up in the morning and feel good, but thats very seldom. Usually its just cause I wake up early and can't get back to bed so after awhile I'm wide-awake.

It sucks waiting an hour or two before falling asleep in bed. Luckily I can avoid that when I smoke a bowl before bed and still go to bed a little late.

I'm a morning person. By the time most of you read this (i know this for a fact because it aready happend :) ) I will have been up, been to work, and now im getting ready to start school for the day. I say you should try one of three things.

try out melatonin. Good stuff, i use it when i know i have to be in bed, but i don't want to.

Go to bed early. Do you hang out in your bedroom as well? I hear the more time you spend in your bed, not sleeping, the harder it may be to fall alseep. Same thing with being in your room in general, the theory behind this is well, you sleep there, so stay out otherwise.

Get your boyfriend to wear you out. My personal favorite method, everyone wins.:)

Good luck all of you late risers.

I'm always up early, and then I go to bed.. 5 - 6 am.. (I go to bed at 5-6 am)

I'm a morning person, but I have to admit, at one point I wasn't. That's because I would stay up until 2am drinking my ass off, and having to get up at 6am to be at work at 7am the next day. :p

I don't party anymore though so I'm always refreshed and up early. I always up at about 7am everyday. Mon-Fri I don't work until 12pm, but weekends I start at 6am, so I have no choice really.

Ha Ha,,, a customer is away for a week and I been remodeling her kitchen at night... I f@#$%in HATE the Morning!!!!

i look forward to a new day
mornings are quiet and peaceful
