Habits or lack thereof

 

I have habits of having no habits. What I learned about developing healthy habits is you cant do it all in one day. You got to start small. So for the past month or so I've been getting myself in the habit of tidying/cleaning my room when ever i enter it. I come in and out of my room a lot so it stays pretty tidy except when I'm upset or really tired.

The next habit i want to start is a bed time routine. Since before I had a fairly erratic sleep routine, since there was various things I did that would keep me up at odd times. A lot of the time I think it's the medication because it often makes me feel high at night. But that's not the only piece of the puzzle, it's things I'm doing too. 

I figured I might have some social jet lag as there are people I talk to that are either night owls too(like a guy I know in Ontario) and other people I talk to that are in the UK. The people in the UK I usually talk to in the mornings, afternoons and early evenings as at night time around 20:00 hours it's midnight for them so they're usually in bed by that time. The night owl from Ontario sometimes talks to me at 2am or so. Though when I told him I was trying to stay up late less he has been contacting me less at that time. The last time i talked to him it was around 23:00 hours. Yes I know it's weird I write things in 24 hour time but I prefer it nowadays. Because it's easier to keep things straight at strange times and figuring out things at varying times. Also it helps my brain. It may sound silly. 

Though the meds are a big part of it. I've been up for over 24 hours now and I'm still driven to do stuff even though I probably should be winding down to go to sleep. The last time i tried reducing it I found I felt less moody and more relaxed. Though I feel I must take them at the full dose for reasons I'm not going to get into right now.
