I don't know if I have the same disorder, but I definitely feel this. It's so much nicer at night. A lot of people fuck up their sleep schedule on the weekends. I keep the weekends the same as my work week and have no problems being sleepy.

But I'm considering applying for a new position at my organization which will mean I have to shift back to days. I'm not sure if the promotion is worth the headache of early mornings and the commute.

The key is, if you take like 2 weeks off work, and sleep/wake whenever you want, what times do you tend towards?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nights absolutely. With 2 weeks off, I easily stay up till 5 in the morning without even realizing it's that late. I've always found it hard to sleep at 10pm like other people, and I won't start get tired until 3am.

Unfortunately the shift I'm on right now is 12 hour shifts, which means I'm up till 8-10am. Which is a little later than I like, but I still feel better than waking up at 6am. Working 6am-6pm is way rougher on me than 6pm-6am

Yep, sounds like DSPD.
