So recently, I've been staying up as late as possible to RP with people (while sick) and I go to sleep even later. I wake up at 5:45 (cst) every single day. The other night I went to bed, fell asleep for some minutes, and then was awake the whole night, and last night i got more than a few hours.

Now i'm not I regret the RP. Iwilldothisoverandoveragainbecauseitissomuchfun. (No matter how many times the RPing partners will say to go to bed >w>)

But this thread is wondering:
-How late do you go to bed?
-When do you wake up?
-Doyouregretit?

You're adorbs. Drowsy, likely, but adorbs.

I haven't been officially diagnosed yet, but I am pretty sure I suffer from sleep apnea, so I do get pretty tired on a regular schedule and so have the need to go to bed pretty damn strongly.

I haven't had any RP keep me awake...which shouldn't be taken as a comment about the quality of RP I've been involved with more than a side effect of my apparent condition.

I need treatment, but I'm not looking forward to it. :c

I love me my sleep, and usually like getting around 9 hours or so when I can get away with it. However, I've worked fine with 6ish, leaving me with a good three hour range of wiggle-room for RP and such. I get up around 7am EST, so that means I can hang out until 1am if I'm really having a good time.

I've actually stayed up later on a couple occasions, and I only feel "bad" about it for a bit the next morning when I'm all tired. Once I have some breakfast or something to perk me up, I'm fine. With weekends, though, I'm free to stay up until six in the morning if I so desire... and just sleep until noon or later afterward. Laugh

-I don't regret it.
-Sometimes I don't sleep just so I can catch this certain RP or RP event or something or I wake up stupidly early (-3 in the damn morning as the earliest to wake up, because timezones) to catch said RP.

Melody · **03-24-2015, 08:39 AM**

I will go to bed typically around 12:30 to 2 in the morning depending on what I'm doing, whether it be catching up on RP with friends, working on personal projects, or watching stuff with the hubby.

During the work week my alarm goes off at 6AM, so those up-til-2 mornings kinda hurt sometimes. XD
Weekends or days off, however, I refuse to go to bed until I'm passing out at my desk. *^*

Iregretnothing!

I try to get 6hrs sleep when I was working the next day, but when not I often stay up through the night and then do 3hrs sleep. I can do this a few times before I need another 6+ hrs.Â

I do find making sleeps in 90min blocks helps and I use some delta wave music.

I have nodded off in RP for like 40 min, and I know when I micro nap between blows in pve it is time to sleep.

I'm in the UK and trying to play in the US timezones.

***Alothia*** · **03-24-2015, 09:15 AM**

I get up at 6:00 am EST and go to work. I'm usually here until about 3:00pm EST.

Then, I go home, take a nap for a couple of hours, get up, RP and play XIV. I try to go to bed between 11pm and 1am EST, then get up and do it all over again.

But yes, I'm tired. And no, I don't regret it.

*Is a hat, hats do not sleep*

...

....

.....

*Peeks out from under the hat* Erm, I'm up at dawn and in bed by midnight at the latest. In my old age, I am beginning to regret it. Few see how many yawns are released under this brim.

*Lowers the hat again, faint snoring sounds are heard*

**Unnamed Mercenary** · **03-24-2015, 09:27 AM**

My alarm(s) go off starting at about 4AM PST. If lucky, I manage to roll out of bed, shower/dress and pack a to-go lunch from the previous night's dinner (if applicable) before heading out for work from 6AM - 3PM.Â

Depending on the work day (it's IT, but it can be tiring nonetheless), I'll get home between 3:15-3:45 and debate if I want to take a nap. If I do, I'll sleep maybe an hour or two at best. On "responsible" days, I'll try to sleep around 9, but this usually means 10-10:30. If I took a nap and I'm not feeling sleepy, this gets extended to about 11-11:30.

There have been nights where I've stayed up until 2AM RPing/doing other things. I don't regret doing them, but I definitely regret having to wake up in the morning. THe good thing about this is that my work hours are a little fluid. As long as I get my 8 hours between 6AM and 6PM PST, I can really work just about anything I want. So if I can't bring myself out of bed on time, I just show up whenever and work my shift. ...this usually means coming in around 7:30, taking a half lunch, and leaving at 4.

I go to bed between 12am and 3am depending on if I'm in the middle of heavy RP.
/shakefist @ Roen

But I work 9 to 6, so I can afford to be up a little later.
I also have the undiagnosed apnea. I can't remember the last time I had an actual dream.

Y'lani · **03-24-2015, 09:39 AM**

My sleep schedule is fairly orderly. As an American who plays with a bunch EU folk, I have it better than them -- all I need is good sleep so I can wake up regular morning times to match up. (8 AM, etc.)

On weekdays, I get maybe six to five hours (because school), while on weekends I get eight to nine. So yeah, I get sleep! Nothing to regret here.

Telluride · **03-24-2015, 09:45 AM**

I get up at 6:30 AM CST and work 8-5, and come online between 6 and 7, save for errand nights and such. I tend to stay on until between midnight and 1AM.

Yes, I need to sleep more.

To you apnea sufferers - getting it treated helps! Mine was diagnosed and I sleep much better now.

What are these "dreams" you speak of? I never remember mine.

Elysia · **03-24-2015, 09:48 AM**

Short answer: no.Â

I go to bed late every day because I detest sleeping right after having finished work, and wake up before 6 to head out into the world. (This isn't exactly always RP's fault, considering my timezone.) So it's 5 hours on weekdays, 6 if I'm lucky... and then, on weekends, I rise early tooÂ for either 1) morning runs or 2) FFXIV. I wouldn't be able to meet fellow Eorzeans on Balmung otherwise!Â

Sleep debt keeps piling up. Maybe I'll regret this... eventually... Until then, I'll persist in believing I'm still young enough for awesome hours-long RP. Tongue

Kishi · **03-24-2015, 10:08 AM**

What in gods name is this thing called sleep? Is it a Unicorn? Is it some long lost treasure? Maybe it's some sort of new food? (I toss and turn so much at night, and keep waking up I barely get any sleep most of the time. Maybe once a week, I may get two or even three hours? Though I have to be complete exhausted for that to even happen.)

to answer the questions!
I normally head to bed around midnight 1 through out the week, maybe later then that on weekends. (damn work)

I'm typically up at the ass crack of dawn.. no matter how late I stay up the night before.

I really don't regret it per-say. Unless I miss out on some good rp, or seeing some very funny moments!

[sup](Though for an easy out. I can blame, Mak, Sounsyy, Bri and Matty! For keeping me up late!)[/sup]
