For no reason. I was very tired and wanted to sleep but nothing helped. The earlier it got the more anxious I got the less sleep I got.</P> <P> I have issues with daylight savings and seasonal affective disorder so I’m wondering if last night’s lack of sleep was the Summer Solstice. Does anyone else get affected by stuff like weather and time changes?</P> Fri, 22 Dec 2017 06:24:56 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/staying-well/summer-solstice-and-sleep-disturbances/m-p/317984#M29415 Tasa83 2017-12-22T06:24:56Z Summer Solstice and sleep disturbances https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/staying-well/summer-solstice-and-sleep-disturbances/m-p/317985#M29416 hi Tasa, when I was young I loved daylight saving, now as I'm older I not like it that much, the same applies to summer I used to love now I also dislike it just like winter, but know to adjust to these hours is not easy and when you finally do, then it changes back to normal time.<BR /> There will other people who have the same problem as you do and will reply back to you, but given it is only early, please allow them some time.
