I never had a schedule even when I was a computer engineer. We had deadlines & we did whatever schedule we needed to meet the deadline. Even now I have things I want to get done by a certain time & that is what I focus on. My dogs graze on their food & whenever their bowl is empty I prepare more with the suppliments & everything so even my dogs aren't on a schedule to help me be on one. Definitely not being on a schedule was not the cause of my depression so did it make it worse. Sleep however is something I need but I get it whenever I get tired now. No real schedule but follow my body's needs rather than a schedule.

Never did well with alarms or schedules from when I can remember but still excelled in school & other activities. Have always been a free spirit with schedules in my life.
