It’s interesting to hear your childhood stories! It sounds like there was a significant transition in your routine from a more relaxed, late-night childhood to a more structured school life. Maybe those late-night habits from childhood have become a part of your personality that are hard to change, even as your life becomes more structured. Many people have certain sleep patterns that are hard to change, even as they get into more structured routines as they get older. Getting a good night’s sleep can be a sign that your body needs time to properly rest after a long day, and even if your routine changes, quality sleep is still a priority.
