Are you a night owl or a morning person? How has your military service affected your sleep cycle and how do you cope?

Being a chef for over 30 years, I've worked swing shifts, plus with PTSD/MST, and sleep apnea what the HELL is sleep??? Even with meds I'm calling it a great night to get 4 hours, and the cpap machines don't work, I knock it off (very uncomfortable). So when I'm off, I take cat naps during the day- when I'm working I try not to over tire myself. (LOL)

I was mostly excited for my discharge so that I could work on my emotional state. Throughout my career I hardly ever slept and when I did Marines that know me will tell you it was in the strangest of circumstances. Though it took some focus and training, my sleep is almost normal.

Definitely a night owl. I love reading until the wee hours and now I have RP to keep me awake too. I guess I'm afraid I might miss something if I go to sleep. Mid day naps don't help the sleep cycle either.
