well /adv/, what's the ideal sleep schedule for a male college aged? right now i have no job and only go to school 1 day a week.
a.tm i go to bed anywhere from 2-6am and get up at 12-4. it just isn't working. im always tired and can barely do any work.
Maybe to try and get more normal set your alarm 8 hours from when you go to bed.

I wake up at 4pm go to work at 6 until 6am, drive home for seven then try to sleep.
If it's a run day I run first.
If I don't sleep, I get out of bed at midday and fuck around on videogames till 4 then go to work. I'll typically do that thing where you aren't sleeping but snap awake every 30 seconds for about an hour at midnight then drive home as usual and collapse into bed.
If it's a run day I run first.

you should be getting 7-9 hours of sleep, too much sleep can also be detrimental to your energy
midnight to 7-9am would be fine, if you have to wake up earlier, sleep earlier

This but "too much sleep" is around 14 hours +
Sleep deprivation will first make you dumb then turn you insane.
Read some studies on long term sleep deprivation and mental health.

11+ hours is already not a good idea, ideal range is 7-9, maybe 6-10
