sleep help?

[Guest guest]

Hello,

Everything i have read about AF says sleep in past 9am, I have never

really been a good sleeper but i am having a hard time going to bed by

9pm and sleeping until 9am??? Is everyone else able to sleep 12

hours??? I have no problem falling asleep between 9 and 10 and I

normally wake up evry night at midnight just long enough to look at the

clock and roll over and go back to sleep, this happens despite

everything I have tryed (high protein snack before bed, last isocort

before bed, tea before bed) nothing seems to let me sleep srtaight

through and I just cant sleep for 12 hours. Should I maybe go to bed

later or is it ok that I dont sleep until 9 and that I am up at 6 am????

Any thought???

Thank You for all your help

Even at my worst I couldn't sleep 12 hours. If you're up, you're up,

so I'd get up and do stuff. I would, however, lay down for a nap in

the afternoon, even if it's just to " rest " without falling asleep. I

think I was running on adrenaline back then. So for me, 8 hours is

about max.

Try adding some fat and fiber to your protein snack like peanut butter

or any nut butter, some apple or carrot.
