Hi guys, I work from home and it is so hard to have some normal sleep pattern.

What can u reccomend me please?
I just have no discipline.. I work mainly 15-22.. Should I just go to sleep at same time every day or wake up at the same time? Which one is best habit please?

I just would love to wake up at 10 AM every day but over year as a freelancer it is very hard for me to stick with it..
Give me some tricks or tips please.. I got depressed when I cannot wake up at a same time..
I am fallling asleep with phone in my hand.. maybe it is why.. I dont drink lot of caffeine per day.
I am somehow not tired.. Idk why. I suffer from depression little bit I must say so maybe it is reason I cannot stick to sleeping schedule?? Idk.

EDIT: Wow, over 138 upvotes! That was my biggest. I am now reading Kindle 1 hour before bed and I have streak of 3 days waking up at a same time every day and I already feel much better.

I found out when I do not have my smartphone and watching youtube in my bed and instead of reading some Harry Potter book that I feel very relaxed and I fall asleep and dont wake up in middle of night and wake up so much easily even I started again using caffeine.

I am caffeine sensitive so I drink only strong espresso in morning and then I fall asleep if I have routine that I wrote above..

Now my goal is to wake up 30 days in a row at a same time and it will be habit. If you are struggling too, invest in kindle and read some fantasy book and put your phone away from the bed!! Do this 30 times in a row and then it will be okay.

My depression improved a lot when I do wake up in the same day and my responsibility for finishing my weekly goals greatly improved..

My next goal is to start eating clean and replace cookies and junk food for some fruits, lean protein and vegetables. Eating clean increase serotonine levels and its good for mood and sleep this hormon.
