How can i stop going to bed so late?!?

One night after you have stayed up till 2 a.m., get up at 8:00, then stay up all day with no nap (keep yourself busy doing things outside or around the house), and then by about 10 p.m., you should be tired enough to go to bed. Then try to stick to the routine of getting up early so that you will be tired at a normal time.

Also, stop asking/answering questions on Yahoo Answers.

Do more activities in the day so when night falls your tired and you can get to bed early.
Set your alarm clock for 7 AM and get up at 7 AM every day.

This will naturally set your sleeping time.

Don't get into bed except to sleep. In other words, don't start reading/emailing/watching TV in bed.
i think that you should try waking up like in 10:00 then sleep at 10:00 in nighttime so that you get 12 hours of sleep and playtime but only when there's no school. if there's school then it depends on when you wake up. make it the same time you sleep but at night.
I KNOW there is a lot. But these tips really helped me.

1. Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule, including weekends.

2. Establish a relaxing bedtime routine, such as soaking in a hot bath or hot tub and then reading a book or listening to soothing music.

3. Create a sleep-conducive environment that is dark, quiet, comfortable and cool.

4. Sleep on a comfortable mattress and pillow.

5. Use your bedroom only for sleep and sex. It is best to take work materials, computers and televisions out of the sleeping environment.

6. Finish eating at least two to three hours before your regular bedtime.

7. Exercise regularly. It is ideal to complete your workout at least a few hours before bedtime.

8. Avoid alcohol, nicotine (e.g., cigarettes, tobacco products), and caffeine (e.g., coffee, tea, soft drinks, chocolate) close to bedtime. These can lead to poor sleep, keep you awake or disrupt sleep later in the night.

Or if you want to fall asleep faster. These tips really helped me.

* As much as you can, try to stay in bed with your eyes closed, even if you are not actually sleeping. You will drift in-and-out of sleep even if you do not realize it. As a result, you will be more relaxed in the long run.

* Relax by imagining a wave of comfort start from your feet and slowly work this 'wave' up your body. The process should take about 10 minutes.

* Eat a banana or two before bed. The magnesium in the banana will help your muscles to relax. Other foods that will help you fall asleep are: Cheese, Mustard, Pickles, Lettuce, Turkey. They have natural chemicals that work with your brain to send a 'calm' message over your body.

* Some people believe that eating protein-enriched foods as a snack will help slow the mind so it can focus on sleeping. So a small pack of nuts or trail mix would be helpful.

* Exercise during the late afternoon. Go for a jog or to the gym. The aftereffects of the chemicals in your body released during the workout will get you through the evening. It's much easier to fall asleep if you've done something active since it's much easier to go to sleep when you're exhausted or tired than just sitting at home with all your energy from food you ate.

* Sometimes, it's easier to go to sleep with some lights on if you wear a sleeping mask.

* Tense all your leg muscles. Inhale slowly. Relax and exhale slowly. Repeat about seven times.

* Do not watch t.v. to help you go to sleep. The lights and the noise can make you stay awake for an hour or more.

* Do not exercise before going to bed. This will get your adrenaline going, your heart pumping, and speed up your respiratory system. Those things will make it very hard to fall asleep.

* The most important part of your body that should be relaxed (and the one that almost everyone overlooks) is your tongue. When you notice it, you'll find that it is invariably plastered against the roof of your mouth or up against your front teeth. Make a conscious effort to relax your tongue, jaw, and face along with the rest of your body. You'll be surprised how quickly you fall asleep!

* Sleep is just a lowered state of consciousness. Get to that state faster by not thinking. The easiest way to do this is to focus on the color black you "see" when you close your eyes. Deflect any other thought that arrives, as it will hinder your ability to focus on black. It is a difficult task initially, but if you can stick to it, you'll be asleep within 2-3 minutes.

* Be sure you have closed your eyes. Research has proven that if you don't close your eyes, it would be more difficult for you to fall asleep.

* Cover up the display or turn around an alarm clock, so you lose the perception of time. If you can't sleep and you see the hours going by, it can stress you out by thinking that you have to sleep ASAP. Overall, just try not to think of immediately going to sleep. This causes nervousness and queasiness, making it even harder to fall asleep. Remember, think of something calm instead of worrying about the time going by.

* Try a number of things until you figure out what works.

* Ask a family member to give you a back massage. It will relax you very much and help you fall asleep.

* Consider getting a new mattress if your current one is old.

* Count mentally or gently stare at mundane objects.
I am the same way! I find that having a responsibility that is needed to be done at a set time in the morning helps for me to wake up at the right time.

Luckily for me, my body is used to not having as much sleep as I used to, and I can still go to bed late and wake up early. :D
Sleeping at those hours is not 'normal.' Your body probably needs a good 8 to 10 hours of rest every day. If you are able to start doing some sort of work out, exercise, or anything to help make you tired during the day, you can eventually turn your routine back into a regular schedule of going to bed by 10:00 pm and getting up when you need to in the morning, whether it is for school or work. Do not eat or drink anything that has caffeine in it or any kind of stimulant three hours prior to going to bed. They will always keep you up and going. I drink a big glass of milk right when I go to bed and it helps make me sleepy.

Also, until you get your new routine established, there is really

nothing wrong with taking a couple of Tylenol PM's to help get

you started back into your routine or by reading for just a few minutes prior to turning out your lights. If you are persistant and learn to relax, you can change this schedule into a totally different one to change your hours back to normal hours. Also, keep it as dark and quiet as possible in your bedroom. That helps me out a whole lot because I tend to fall asleep and sleep lightly before my REM sleep kicks in about 3 am.

I hope this is of some help to you and that your new year is a great one!! :-)
