At what age did you start having trouble staying up late?

I’m 27, and I have 2 kids now.

I work 6 days a week, but bout to go back to 5 for a while.

I get all excited to stay up on the one night I can, but never make it past 10-11 pm lol

Left to my own devices, my default is to be productive at night and sleep during the day. Maybe my pineal gland is set to backward but fortunately having a daytime job necessitates functioning like a real human

I am 41 and I am pretty much in bed by 10 these days. If something good is happening I can stay up but am content to go to bed early.

kid #1.

he frequently wakes at 5:45. So staying up til 11-midnight at minimum, as a night owl every night was kicking my arse. Most nights i’m passed out by 9:30, but 1-2 nights a week i torture myself by staying up til the hours i used to.

I'm 35 with 2 kids. I pulled an all nighter doing presents Christmas eve. Went to sleep about 9 the night of Christmas. So I was up over 36 straight hours and it didn't bother me that much. As long as I keep moving I can stay up forever

I used to be a night owl but not so much anymore. I'll occasionally stay up until midnight on the weekend but rarely later than that. I think that changed for me in my early 30s.

I am 10 years older and have no issues staying up late … but I don’t have kids and get plenty of sleep regularly.
