Why get up in the morning?

25 June 2009 mandag

When there is nothing planned to do during a day, I wake up late (of course) and get the feeling – why should I go up from bed, when I do not really need to do anything. It is like I am convinsing myself to just stay in bed. I am actually not tired and absolutly do not need to sleep a single minute more. But somehow, I cannot find a good reason to get up! So I wonder, how do other people manage? I understand that people manage when they have a job or school, but how do they manage when they are unemployed or on a long leave? I starting to think I have some kind of mysterious sickness which controlls my lack of wanting to get up. It does not matter if the sun is actually shining and the heat is amazing (in Sweden), I cannot find the power to get up early becasue of that (which is weird when it ome to such a unique situation). As long as I have a job or something fun to wake up for, I manage, but as the situation is now, it is very hard and I am really trying to wake up early and go to bed early as well, with no luck. So, how should I think or do, to be able to actually takepart of the day?

    Hi Amanda,
    I know what you mean, I know that feeling too, you don’t have “the mysterious sickness” or maybe we both have it.
    Anyway I agree with you that it’s really hard to leave the bed in the morning when you know that you don’t have anything to do even though the day seems like a great day (with sun and such).
    I use to wake up urly, but then stay in bed. Sometimes I fall asleep again and sometimes I just lay there, but I easy get bad conscience by just laying there and doing nothing so to get up I close my eyes really hard and then count to three… then I just go up fast. In that way I push my self to get up!!! It maybe sounds lame, but if you try it might work.
    Then there is another problem. When you’re up… what’s there to do next^^ hehe that I can’t anwser. Breakfast or workout is two good alternatives.

    Wow, this “answere” tourned out to be much longer then I thought, I hope it wasn’t a waist of your time.

    …bye / I, who lives in Sweden too.
