Sleeping pattern during college

    Hi,

    I'm just doing some research for an article I'm thinking of writing about sleeping patterns during college. A lot of people I've spoken to described their college experience as mostly spent in bed! Sleeping it out, missing lectures, feeling **** and self esteem suffering as a result.

    It became a cycle that they felt they couldn't pull themselves out of and for those who have graduated and are looking for work, they say they are still in that cycle and some even say that they're afraid of getting a job because they'll let their employer down by sleeping it out.

    I'd love to know if anyone else has had an experience like this or wanted to give me any suggestions!!

    Thanks a million,

    P

    I completely agree about your sleeping getting messed up and feeling terrible and feeling guilty etc. However, I got a job in August and I snapped out of it straight away back into a school-esqe schedule and I have to say i am loving working life. Better sleep, drink less, more regular exercise, better diet......I have to say I never enjoyed college
