 This weeks sleep schedule was a bit of a weird and inconsistent one. I was trying to figure out why my sleep schedule would not get fixed, even after I continuously went to bed rather early the week before and the one before that but I had no clue what my body was doing. 

Sunday morning, I woke up around 10am to go to church and I felt tired but it easily went away as soon as I got in the shower and headed to church. That night, I slept like a newborn and went to bed at 11pm, a first in such a long time. I woke up at around 9:30am, just with barely enough time for me to get ready and  head to class. The rest of the day was pretty uneventful, but might I add that I had no caffeine the entire day. Once nighttime came however, I felt as if I had drank about 600mg+ of caffeine because I was wired and wide awake. I would not be able to go to sleep until 4:30am or so. Because of the lack of sleep, I missed my first and only class Tuesday morning (sorry Dr. Strovas) and woke up just minutes after the class had ended. The whole day I felt tired and like I had been on a sleep strike, but the same thing happened the next night. I went to bed a bit earlier but not early enough with a set time of 3:15am. I managed to pull myself out of bed for Wednesday’s classes still with very little energy. The same thing proceeded to happen, no shut eye until about 3 once again.

 Thursday and Friday nights were the only nights that I was able to get some decent amount of sleep in, going to bed at around 12am and waking up at 9am on Thursday and at 4am on Friday. The reason I woke up so darn early on Friday was because I was headed home that day and I didn’t want to waste time. I slept very poorly but regardless of how poor my sleep hygiene was, my body could not muster the strength or weakness to submit to my sleep pressure and allow me to go to bed. I am currently extremely sleep deprived but my body somehow still feels as if I had been on hibernation and just awoke from a lengthy and comfortable sleep. Please send help :(
