What time do you go to bed?

I've been in bed since 7:45pm - usually a rarity for me as I'm a night owl and my normal bedtime used to be 11pm up until a couple of months ago. Recently, I've started getting really tired early on. Curious to know what time others go to bed?

As early as I can ! 9 pm is my ideal time love going to bed early !

Alex2005 · 06/01/2025 21:39

I usually sleep at 10 pm! Have to stay up when needed lol

I tend to get into bed around 8pm, I go to sleep between 10-11 depending on whether I'm wfh the next day or getting up earlier to go to the office.

Normally asleep by 10:30. Come up to bed anytime between 9-10 and then scroll MN 😂

God I wouldn’t have any evening if I went to bed at 8.30! I only just sit down then. I wouldn’t be able to sleep anyway.
Normally around 10.30pm

In bed around 10:30pm and asleep by 11:30pm.

I have teenagers and I'd never get any down time if I went to bed earlier than that.

Stuffisperplexing · 06/01/2025 21:47

Midnight to 1

But I WFH and get up at 830

Too late to be honest. I’m hoping to get to bed earlier this year and by bed I mean our own! Our house is like musical beds/floors at times it feels and we don’t always get down time alone. DH and I are in bed now. He’s reading work documents on his iPad and I’m scrolling. Littlest DD is sound asleep in between us. Not perfect but it’s a start!

Usually in bed for 10pm, and asleep by 11

Rainbow450 · 06/01/2025 21:49

In bed 10 ish and I read until I turn light off at 11.

mondaytosunday · 06/01/2025 21:50

Between 1-2am.

Umthisisabitawkward · 06/01/2025 21:51

Like a PP said, I don’t get to sit down until about 8.30-9, so I stay up till 10.30-11 to get some time on my own. Even though I’m shattered and could quite easily fall asleep at about 8pm.

BrieHugger · 06/01/2025 21:52

I’m never asleep before midnight unless I’m ill. I’m often tired at 8ish but then get a second wind and am really productive around 10-11pm.

reluctantbrit · 06/01/2025 22:06

In bed around 10pm. Depending on the book I currently read I am asleep by 11pm or 1am.

No phones upstairs.

obsessedwithfreshbread · 06/01/2025 22:29

As PP's have said if I go too early I don't feel I've had any evening, I normally sit down around 9 to watch TV and go up anywhere between 11 &1.
Although tonight I can up around 9.30 as DH wanted to watch something I'm not keen on so the dog and I watching tv in bed for a change 😀

Moonlightstars · 06/01/2025 22:30

In bed by 11, asleep by 11.45

Same. I'm retired so can get up when I want, staying up late is my natural inclination but I obviously had to fight against it for decades due to school, university, work, child rearing. But I never really liked going to bed by 11 or getting up early, so it's great finally being able to do what my body wants to do.
The only time I'd ever go to bed at 9 or 10 was if I was ill or the night before a flight or ferry. Can't imagine being an adult and going to bed at 8 or half past, in the summer it would still be light!
