I see alot of us on OT are up real late into the morning.

What are some of the reasons that keep you up?

Well, I took a nap this afternoon, and that screwed me over for sleeping tonight.

I have insomnia and I do nothing during the day. Which means I can sleep all day and never feel tired at a normal day.

We college students have a strong tendency towards both those things.

I'm retired so I don't have to keep a schedule unless I have a doctors appointment. I usually go to bed as the sun is coming up and get up around 2 or 3 in the afternoon.

The reason I prefer being up at night is because daytime TV sucks ass. There's no way in hell I'm watching soap operas or talk shows.

Yeah, my sleep schedule started getting screwed up my senior year of High School, and college is certainly not helping now.

My days and night are mixed up. I had it on track but it's so easy for me to screw it up again.

I just dont sleep normally, I have been a night owl since I was little, Besides, the more colorful people come out at night. I like OT more at night than during the day.

Work. I do love the night time but come 3am I'd much rather be sleeping. Then get up around 10 am or so and do it all over again.

I work 4-12:30, so when I get home I like to stay up a little later to feel like I've done something with my day besides work.

I just can't sleep unless I'm very tired. I've had insomnia for a while, and I take pills when I need to go to sleep by a certain time,

I stay up late because I have a lot on my mind and just can not sleep because of it.

Procrastination was the first word to come to mind, but i'm not exactly sure how that makes sense.

I'm a bit of an insomniac and I always end up playing games and doing homework late into the night.
