[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wake at 6am every morning. Most mornings I wake and have zero energy, my brain is fog, and I vow to take an hour nap when I get home from dropping the kids at school and before I have to log in to work. But then I get in the car, return home, and am met with a burst of energy. Like today: I was dead tired, took kids to school in pajamas so I could slide right into bed. Now I’m back home and have already completed two household tasks and getting ready to start laundry and empty dishwasher. A half hour ago I was ready for bed again. What is this? [/quote] Exposure to sun and light. I would suggest light therapy. and automatic shades if you can afford it that partially open from the top about 10-15 min before your desired wakeup time. trying taking a walk after dropping the kids off. also hold off on coffee or any stimulants until 90 min after you wake. eat a protein rich breakfast. ensure that you have natural light exposure during the day while inside. [/quote] It’s still dark when I get home, so I don’t think it’s this. [/quote]
