Do you have a TV in your bedroom? You really need to read this... sleep sleepdiaries DrNerina

Any officially diagnosed sleep-related problems:3-5 cups of tea and 2/3 pints of waterI try to get out for walks after work – so typically about one to two hours of walking. However, I didn’t do this during the week of the diary as the garden needed work!I finish work at 5.30pm and head outside to do some weeding in the garden for about an hour. Then, I eat a leftover pasta bake for dinner. At around 9.

It takes me about half an hour to get to sleep, which is quite a long time for me – I typically fall asleep quickly. And I wake up around 3am from a dream I remember involving slugs, probably as I came across one under one of my plants when weeding earlier. I get up to pee then fall back asleep quickly.My alarms go off as planned, but I snooze until 7.40am. I feel OK when I get up – not too groggy – and I make sure to eat some breakfast at 9.30am.

I fall asleep quickly, but wake up around 12.45am and 3am needing to pee. Thankfully, I manage to nod off easily both times.I wake up naturally at 7.20am but feel tired, so lie in bed until 7.50am. I have some toast around 9am, before heading out for the day to Thorpe Park. I still make sure to do an hour’s gardening, repotting plants and tidying things up. Then, I tuck into a bowl of leftover chilli at 7.30pm and watch TV until 10.30pm .

I’m tired when my alarm goes off at 7.10am, and I don’t eat my breakfast until 9am. This grogginess stays with me for most of the day, so i drink coffee at lunchtime to try and wake myself up.and munching through some popcorn. This means that we don’t get to bed until midnight, but it’s Saturday tomorrow and I don’t have to set my alarms as early as usual; one for 9.20am, and one for 9.30am.
