| I feel utterly exhausted. Like I have a hangover. And no, I didn't drink last night. Ugh. |

| Actually, you didn't get an extra hour, so quick, move that clock forward two hours! Spring forward, fall back. |

| It's one hour less, not more. I'm exhausted too, but I did drink. And thanks to the time change I didn't get home until almost four am. ughh.. |

| OP here. What I mean is I actually went to bed an hour earlier that I usually do intentionally because of the time change. But I still don't feel refreshed. I feel "off." |

Going to bed an extra hour earlier would put you in the same place you always are, because you lost an hour. You're still not ahead of the curve. |

| I saw this instructional video about how to adjust. It suggested going to bed and waking up ten minutes earlier every day six days before the time change. It also said to take melatonin several hours before you go to bed the night before the change. According to the video, there are more car accidents the Monday following the change. |

| I woke up a half hour ago, so...........................feeling pretty refreshed. But probably won't be able to sleep until 2AM. I don't anticipate a good day tomorrow when I head to work. |

OP here. That's why I went to bed an hour earlier, to put myself in the same place I always am. I understand the math.  I just don't feel like I got a good night's sleep. Circadian rhythm and all that jazz, I guess.
But thanks for the mocking, all. Should have known better. |

OP, you still wouldn't be able to gain an hour by going to sleep early. If you left your house to go check your mailbox at 1:59am, when you returned it would be 3:00am but it did not take you an hour to walk there and back. |

I DIDN't intend to get an EXTRA hour of sleep. I got the SAME amount as usual.
The title of my post wasn't worded right, I guess. |

Your title was a bit off, but I get what you're saying. I don't know why folks can't address the spirit of the thread without the fucking nitpicking. Damn some of these women! Seriously!! |
