I just happened to be browsing the latest posts that people have made when I came across Lauren's. Unlike her, I still have yet to figure out what my body needs. I'm quite jealous that she is able to know exactly how much sleep she needs, & how she feels if she doesn't get it. I on the other hand am completly out of touch with my sleeping needs. It varies greatly. It depends on what I've done that day, what my previous night was like, I never quite know how much is enough. In high school I'm pretty sure that I had insomnia. Freshman year anyway. I would get ready for bed, & then just end up laying there all night. At around 4 or 5am I would start to get a little tired, sleep until 7:50am get out of bed, throw on some clothes, brush my teeth, wash my face & walk the 50 feet it took to get to my classes (going to boarding school has some perks). Then the beginning of this semester, I could not stop sleeping. Every chance I could I would nap because I was always so tired. & now I'm reverting back to my old ways that seem to pop up ever few year, I'm back to sleeping 4-5 hours a night. Maybe one day I can finally figure myself out! I hope so.
