I make a decent effort to create a sleep-friendly environment

Love them! I take them often
I wish I could nap, but I can’t fall asleep
I might nap if I’m completely exhausted
Occasionally, if I’m feeling a bit tired

Groggy and barely functioning
A bit sluggish but generally okay

I don’t really need it, but I’ll have a cup if I want
I’m practically living on caffeine
I rely on it to get through the day, but I try to limit myself
I enjoy a cup or two to stay alert, but I could go without it

I have a whole routine to help me unwind

How do you feel about bedtime?
I look forward to it – I love my sleep!
I dread it because I know I won’t get rest
I’m neutral; I just go when I’m tired
I try to keep a steady routine, so it’s pretty routine for me
11
Do you ever stay up to finish something important?
Hardly – I need my sleep
All the time – it’s how I end up barely sleeping
Sometimes, but I regret it the next day
Only if I really need to, but I’ll make up the sleep later
12
Do you use any sleep supports (melatonin, white noise, etc.)?
No, I don’t need them
Yes, but they don’t really work for me
Occasionally, to help when I’m especially tired
Only once in a while, if I need a bit of help

What’s your favorite time of day?
Morning – I feel energized and refreshed
Evening – because I’m finally not struggling to stay awake
Afternoon – I start to feel human by then
Anytime – I have energy throughout the day
