What can you do to regulate your sleeping pattern if your an extreme night owl?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well...: Some people's clocks are set later than others. You can try to reset your clock to a more "normal time" by having rigid wake-sleep schedule, using early bright light exposure and night-time pre-bed melatonin use. Ask your pmd or a sleep specialist about this.
