I go to sleep only when i'm extremley tired.

I'm a computer addict, AND I'm unemployed. Probably one of THE worst living conditions one could ask for. I don't really hate sleep, I just developed this habit of only wanting to sleep when I'm so tired that I lose interest in EVERYTHING. What happens is that I begin going to bed later and later each day, and my "bedtime" starts moving around the clock. Eventually I'll be sleeping in the day and waking up at night.

I sit in my house ALL day and do nothing but sit behind a computer. Zero physical activity. I'm wondering. Is my body adapting to this lifestyle? Is this why it's so easy for me to stay up late into the night? Is this healthy? Should I just accept that this is how I will be until I get some kind of major daily routine such as a job, or school? I just hate this so much, because I feel miserable missing out seeing daylight. And I get this horrible feeling of being trapped, in a little box. Similar to claustrophobia. Is it normal?

    I don't think its "normal" but I think a lot of people have this problem...I know I do...I'm better at making myself go to bed (even if I just lay there all night) than when I was younger...I used to stay up 3 or 4 days in a row!

    Why don't you go for a damn walk. Or pull up some excersize videos on the internet and move your lazy ass, at least youl still be in front of the computer. I'm not trying to be mean, but what the hell are you doing to yourself?!?

    I have to exhaust myself, in order to fall asleep. I can't unless I'm at least 90% tired. I think it's better when you can fall asleep in less than 15 minutes.

    I wait until I can't possibly stay up anymore and then go to sleep. Sometimes I lay in bed for hours with my mind running wild so that's probably why. It's nice to fall asleep right away. Also LCD monitors have been scientifically proven to disrupt sleeping signals in your brain

    u mention that u feel like you're trapped in a box, but you have the power to change this. you can go outside and take a walk or a bike ride, or go to a library or coffee shop and read a book/magazine. you can break your addiction/routine if truly want to.
