I'm trying to do this....though I am facing a huge uphill battle.
There are groups on Facebook and Twitter where people motivate each other to get up early, and to exercise first thing. They post daily, things like, "good morning, just got up!" I joined one of those groups, but my cycle is so different than these "normal people" that I feel like I don't fit in....I mean, some days I get out of bed at 2 PM! HORRIBLE, I know. Trying to change it. I have certifiable Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS), am seeing doctors, etc.
I am looking for emotional support, wondering if anyone else is going through this? Does anyone want to post somewhere about your daily progress, and we can cheer each other on? I would like to start a Group on Facebook for those of us trying to change our sleep cycles, but I'm nervous and don't know if I have the energy to keep logging on. Just don't know if I should/can take that leadership role. I wish a group for DSPS people who are trying to change already existed online, but can't find one. I need a place that will hold me accountable daily, and can't really drag family/friends down this crazy path with me....it's moreso my issue and it is too much for them.
I think a lot of us with ME/CFS have this issue anyways.
I may just start posting here, and see if anyone joins in.
But I dunno, I'm less likely to get on first thing and post if I feel like no one is listening, haha. Just wondering who else out there has this issue, and who else is trying to change. Thanks.
