Every spring my sleep cycle suddenly flips and I become totally nocturnal - it has been this way my entire life. No matter what I do, I cannot go to sleep until 8, 9, 10 o'clock in the morning, wake up about 2 or 3pm, and am up all night. Growing up, school, and then in adulthood working, was agonizing. Since I no longer work, it isn't a huge problem, but it takes all summer for me to gradually work my way around to a more usual timeframe. My sleep has never been "normal" - I've always woken up every couple of hours, but this springtime flip thing really puzzles me.
Does anyone else experience something like this?  lynn09
