Do you adhere to a strict daily routine/timetable? I do loosely but my main problem is changing from one environment to another, I don't have set times particularly for meals or sleep.

I was about to answer in the negative to your question, but when I thought about it, my routine is - or has been, previous to my recent new job - fairly consistent.

I used to get up at about the same time - usually midday, and then I'd regularly meet a friend for some brunch, then come home, work on my projects/perseverations, eating when I needed to, and crash into bed sometime in the small hours before repeating the process the next day, and the next, ad nauseam.

I think perhaps, because I had so much freedom being unemployed, that I was getting used to the cycle of being in a natural body rythym, and that's why this artificial day I seem to be having now is so uncomfortable.

I never thought I'd want a 9-6 M-F job, but I really seem to thrive on the routine. Can't wait to go back to work on Monday.

I have a routine for each day of the week as I do a fair amount of things outside of school. But it's quite flexible as I have to allow for homework and other things that may crop up.
