Ugh, having these sleeping habits are pain. Some days I go to bed at 12 and wake up at a normal time, other days I go to bed at 5 am and wake up at 2 in the afternoon, like today. Anyone else have problems like this?

Sleeping habits

Heh yep, lots of weird sleeping habits with me too. This past weekend, for example: Friday I wake up at 6:30 for work, work until 5, then go home and hang out for a bit. Go out to a party until around 4 in the morning and then head home. I wake up at 9 AM and drive two hours out to move stuff to my new apartment up at school. Move in all day long, then get some drink on until around 4 AM again.
Wake up at 6:30 AM and drive two hours home only stop there quick before heading an hour out to a family reunion. I stay there until 3 in the afternoon and then head home. I sleep from 4 PM until midnightish, then hang out until 3 AM before going to sleep again and waking up at 6:30 for work. I'm here till 5 again.
It's no wonder my favorite drink is black coffee!

I used to be that way... then I got a job where I worked 10+ hours a day starting at 7am, sometimes 6 am. I'm out cold by 11:00 at the latest and wake up a half hour before work (2 minute commute)
Melatonin is cheap, in the herbal section, and will MAKE you have a regular sleep pattern. Try it.
Try going to bed at a set time every day. Do not stray from this for at least a week. Lights out means lights out. TV off, computer off, etc. and just try to go to sleep. After a while, it will become second nature.
I'm an insomniac and it kills me. I just stay up and listen to Daft Punk all night because there's no hope in trying to sleep

It depends on your lifestyle, i work 9a-6p so i got my sleeping pattern around that, a friend of mine works 3p-11p, so i rarely see him. get a full time job and get a pattern bassed around that.
Methinks the problem is OP (and I) are 18 and in summer.
Although I have a job that goes from leaving the house around 8:30 am to coming back around 8:30 pm.
So **** idk.
I'll try that man. The hyper feeling only occurs when I have the days where I go to bed at like 4. One lady I worked with before suggested all electronics off at least 2 hours before bed.
Sunday - Thursday I go to bed at 9.30 pm and get out of the bed around 4 am, Friday and Saturday I usually go to be by 11.00 pm and wake up 4 am, however, I wake up every hour . I just can not sleep two hour straight and I never cant stay at bed after 6 am.
The worst thing is that i need to be at office by 8.30 am so not reason to wake up 4 am.

I need to look into that. I've been downing Tylenol PM to keep my schedule semi-regular and wake up for my 9 or 10 am job...

Wal-Mart is about the same price.
Takes about 15-20 minutes to work and wears off after about 6-7 hours. It's REAL hard to stay awake if you take a whole one.
I've taken melatonin from time to time, and find that it works quite well in getting my sleep cycle back in sync. However, I seem to have a higher incidence of intense, whacked-out dreams when I take it.
