Since I have schoolchildren this has become a real problem. But it’s so deeply ingrained in me that I have the feeling I can’t change it without some behavioral therapy.

This is going to sound weird. I had this epiphany about self love recently. I pictured myself as two different people and imagined what I would do for the other to show them I love them. It’s sort of changed my perspective on things, at least a little.

It’s not weird at all. My therapist had me imagine that part of me is an abandoned kitten, as a self-compassion exercise. It was extremely effective- compassion directed outwards is a lot easier for me, as it sounds like it is for you.

No sympathy from me lol, sounds like something awful to do to yourself (and others). 👎

I’m guessing alcohol was the catalyst for nighttime you to appear, eh? Anyway, I hope you managed to make a better life, regardless of the cause.

If I go to bed when I’m not tired then I’ll end up getting even less sleep than if I’d stayed up.
