| Do you think it's either you are or you aren't?
I would like to be more of a morning person, but I can't help it -- I always feel so out of it and down in the morning (despite my usually having to wake up so early to go to work.)
I know this may sound weird, but I feel somewhat depressed when I wake up in the morning. I can't explain it. It's as if I feel like I'm the only one awake in the world (keep in mind this is usually from 5:30-9 am.)
I would just like for it not to be a such an issue, as most jobs require that you wake up early.
One of the reasons why I am such a big coffee drinker is because of my job, and how it requires me to be up so early. Without my morning cup, I'd be an angry zombie. | |

| I don't think I've ever really been a morning person, I mean yes, as a child I was usually up by 7 or so, 6 on the weekends to watch cartoons, but I hardly ever met the day with a smile, it was more with eyes barely open. Then as a teenager I was REALLY not a morning person at all, and now that the weather's warmer and the sun's rising earlier, I'm trying now. For me, being a morning person is a seasonal thing, when the weather's good, sometimes I am, but if it's cold and dark and stuff, forget it. | |

| I am pretty much a morning person. Chris, you may try a short time of working out at home just to get the blood flowing. I know that as hard as it is to get out of bed sometimes to trek to the gym, I always feel better all day when I do go than when I don't. | |

| I am definetly a morning person, I have been since I was a child and used to get up at 5 in the morning and sing outside of the living room window LOL. Years of getting up at 5:30 for work have conditioned me to automatically wake up early on the weekends (no matter what time I go to bed). I appreciate this in the summer months when I get up, I like to see the sun rising and sit outside with a cup of coffee and think about what I am going to do for that day. I also find that I clean the best in the mornings.

| I'm a morning person too. Even if I go to bed at midnight or 1am, my body will still regularly wake up around 6 something. Its not uncommon for me to then go back to bed and sleep a few more hrs but something in me triggers waking up in the early morning. | |

| It can be done Chris but there may be side affects. | |

| I think it all depends on your overall sleep habits. I'm a mid-level morning person; not the perkiest of the lot…but I don't need to be up for two hours before someone won't get cut if they speak to me. | |

| I'm not grumpy or snippy. I just have trouble getting it in gear in the morning. | |

| Either you are or you aren't. I have never been a morning person and I never will be. No matter how many hrs I will set aside so I can get enough sleep to get up early, I still have to drag myself in the morning. I get up at 5 am. I despise it. Afternoon shifts are THE shifts for me. | |
