How old are you and what time do you go to bed?

[defoneedanamechange]

For context: I'm 36, mum of three (youngest is 2.5), work four days a week.

Im also someone who needs a lot of sleep.

So... introductions over. I'm in bed for 8/8.30 and asleep 8.30-9 every night. I then get up at 5.30/6 with my toddler.

Aibu to ask your age and when you go to sleep?

40 and usually between 12-2am

56. 10pm

64 - 10pm

60 & go up to bed after the BBC news at 10 ends, so about 10.35. Read in bed until
11 - 11.15. Up between 6 & 7.30 depending how long I’ve been awake in the middle of the night.

34 and in bed from 8 to 10pm during autumn/winter.
My teen is often settled in her room by 8/9 with her TV on or on FaceTime with her friends. She has always enjoyed winding down so I often do the same.

I'm a night owl, bed is usually between 2 - 3 am. I also have a creative self employed job that I do from home, so I quite often work in the wee hours.

I love the night - it's SO peaceful. That said, whenever I do get up early, I absolutely love the early mornings as well. I think if I didn't have responsibilities, I'd be completely nocturnal😂

I'm also a bit surprised at how early many people got to bed. Interesting thread, OP!

42, asleep 1am-2am, up at 7am.

Almost 70, around midnight, and I read for an hour or so. Awake about 9, have breakfast in bed, and up around 10am.

It’s blissful not to have to behave like a morning person, after 60* years of having to do so for school, work and parenthood.

49, midnight-ish, up at 7:15 on weekdays.

45, usually between 11pm and midnight.

Always up by 7:30am, and 5:30am twice a week for gym sessions at 6am.

Nearly 52. Normally in bed 10
ish, sleep by 10.30, up at 6.15. Occasionally revert to teenage self and bed around 2 am, still wake at 6.15

32. Bed 9.45-10.30

up at 6.30

I like bed and sleep. Can’t tolerate late nights.

Nearly seventy, retired and few obligations. Between 1 am and 3 am, usually and rise around 9/10 am the following day. Sometimes an afternoon nap, of around half an hour.

One of the best things about retirement has been reverting to the semi nocturnal way of life that I had in my youth.

45 work 4 days fulltime hours( healthcare)
in bed by 10:30 latest…. asleep either within 10 minutes or hours later (insomnia issues) no kids

Early 40s. Go to bed at 11pm , alarm goes off at 5.50am. I'm shocked by some of these early bedtimes. How do you have a life going to bed so early? Do you not have hobbies, friends to see, exercise or housework to do?

39 and 9.30pm normally but I have a newborn who won't follow any kind of routine at the moment.

53- single parent
Bed 10pm asleep 11pm
Up 645 on weekdays ... msybd 8am on a weekend

Things might change if I met someone worth staying in bed with.

60, any time between 1:30 and 2:30 am. I don’t sleep until after 4. I’m retired so can get up any time I like and often do!

46. In bed at 9 or 9.30pm.

Asleep about 12.30am. Awake anything between 8 and 9.

Yes I'm shocked too. I'm usually mopping floors
Wiping the kitchen
Folding washing til 9! Full-time job single parent

Do you all go to bed so early because your life is empty and the evenings a nothing?

Unless you, whose life is so full that you're spending your evening sniping at strangers on an online forum.

I am 38. I usually go to bed about 11pm and am up around 7ish usually on non work evenings. On my three work evenings, I'm in bed around midnight-1am.

31,midnight, get up when my baby wakes about 6.30

I'm mid fifties and bed around 11.00. So many people here saying they go to bed at a certain time, but they've posted after the time they say! Are they sleep posting or do they mean they go up to bed then, but actually spend hours on MN instead of going straight to sleep?

55 and usually asleep by 00.30ish. Set my alarm for 7.20am
