5:30 huh?

[panicsurvivor]

Ok, I got a weird one. I have started waking up at 5:30 in the morning. It's not insomnia because I am getting sleep. But for some reason I have been getting up at 5 or 5:30 every day. On my own not because I have to. It is not unpleasant. I get up have my coffee, do a workout, get on the computer for a while, and wait for my kids to get up or to go to work depending on the day. Is this weird? I am 32, am I getting old. Does anybody else do this?

yeah like after an hour of sleep i just wake up and for about 2mins then go back to sleep 0_o idk its random lol

You getting old brah. Im 20 and I couldn't possibly function that early.

 

[MsBuzzkillington]

You are not getting old.

Some people are morning people. Some people night people. You are a morning person, that's all.

It's perfectly normal.

I'm 26 and can't sleep past 10am anymore. But I'm 26, so I shouldn't be sleeping that late anyway, I should have a 9-5 job.....

It is normal to need more sleep while you are young. Your in your prime now.Where skill balances with physical peek.

I grew up on a farm where you were required to awake early at a young age.
I have rarely enjoyed waking up early.

I have to get up not long after 5:30am for my job. After doing this for a while, I struggle to sleep in much past 6 or 6:30 on weekends. Any later and it just feels un-natural.

No, I mostly wake up at 9:00. But sometimes I set my timer around 6:30 just because I like waking up early too. I find it very relaxing, but 5:30 is a lil early hahah. its just what my schedule is planned, depends what i'm doing.
But sometimes I do it for fun. lol, just set my timer and enjoy the morningtime.

Dont think it has anything to do with your age, im 27 and im awake most mornings at 5am.. i try not to get up out of bed because i dont like to wake hubby and my 3 girls.. sometimes im awake from as early as 4am..

Its been like this for many years, its just a bit of a routine i ended up in and couldnt even tell you how it all started.
