Yeah i feel asleep okay enough. The problem for me is getting up as well, i feel like im dying.

Not to mention if stores only had open 24/7, i would literally prefer to live like batman.

Go to bed when sun rises, and get up when sun goes down. Its odd, but for me thats always been my natural sleep rytme

^^^
I would also arise at sunset and retire at sunrise if I could get away with that. but it is much more practical to exercise in the outdoors during daylight hours. also one cannot pay bills when everybody else is at home instead of in the office.

Waking up is terrible for me too - it takes me forever to feel up to getting out of bed, and from there, it tends to take several more hours before I'm actually good for anything.

And then I work all night, go to bed when the sun comes up, wake up in the evening, and the whole thing starts over again... I rather like being a night owl, but this feels neither good nor healthy, and there doesn't seem to be a thing I can do to fix it :cry:

better feeling like the same damned day than waking up to an even more damned day.
