How can I be sure that I won't fall asleep when I get home from school?
I have a tendancy to take naps when I get home from school. It causes me to wake up later than I want, and then homework is pushed back. Then, when it is time to go to bed I'm not tired and my whole schedule is thrown off. I need a good way to be sure that I won't go to sleep when I get home, even if I am sort of tired after school. Any suggestions?
Answers:
If you hang out with someone or force yourself to stay up just after school and do this for a week or two, you shouldn't have any problem keeping this routine. Maybe exercise, eat a snack high in protein, and go to bed right after homework, even if it's earlier like 8 pm.
Drink caffeine. Also, keep moving when you get home. It's easier to continue working, rather than to take a break. Then, it's harder to start back up.
that could be an iron deficiency.i used to do that all the time too, then i started eating things with more iron and oddly enough it acutally helped..give it a shot
do you eat snacks when you get home? Try sleeping earlier at night so you'll be more alert during the day.
stay busy
chores or homework right away
When you get home, exercise for 30 minutes. Either walk or do some aerobic activity.
self-disipline
Get on AnyQA.coms.post a question that will make a few people mad.
Don't sit or lie down. Go for a short walk, breathe really deep for awhile. Maybe take a quick shower and end it with c o l d water.
I have that problem all the time. Do an afterschool sport, or hangout with some friends. Also, go to bed early, sleep in school, and eat something at lunch!
cant help , the last time i fell asleep after school i was out for 5 hrs
you should sleep earlier so you wont nap at home when you get back.Also, eat suger..i guess
have a snack, then do your homework right away.
listen to music or play it, making it. try not collapsing, have more energy
I shugesht that when you arrive home from shhcool you **** and shtudy sheated with a penshil shtanding on the deshk pointed upwardsh at your chin. Thish way if you fall ashleep you will wake up when the penshil shtabs you in the chin. Thish way you shtay awake.
I am shorry but I have a shpeach impediment.
eat some whole grains and fruit. do some EXERSICE after school this will give you energy. it wont feel like that at first but it will. also stay hydrated. cut back on sodas and drink water instead. i get tired when I'm dehydrated. if this doesn't help in 2-3 weeks go see your doctor.
First you should get some vitamins..eat a snack drink a soda..do your homework while eating..listen to some music..maybe you can also do homework at a friends house right after school.well anyways good luck
y not finish all of ur homework first or try to set up the alarm allowing u to sleep only 2 hrs...
dont lie down or sit !do something that will keep you busy like ur doing now
Get your blood tested for anemia. Make yourself go to bed by 9 until you get on track. Wash your face in cold water and then do your homework. Get busy with chores or visit with friends until mealtime and then review your homework and get ready for bed. You will just have to make yourself go to bed early and stay there.My son took a growing spurt(3 in in 1 mo.) and this happened to him. The dr said his body was growing so fast that it was wearing him out! He had to quit sports and extras for a while and he got better.If you are anemic you will get better when you get some iron in you! Best wishes!
Drink a MONSTER Energy Drink. There available at AMPM. Also, Red Bull, Full Throttle, JokerMAD, SOBE (so-bee) Energy, and Kronik are great tasting energy drinks. Vault is a hybrid of soda and energy drink, and it tastes exactly like Sprite. TAB is a good one too.
I had this same problem when I was in high school, college & then after work. You might try to make sure you drink plenty of water & eat a decent lunch. Don't eat anything too heavy or anything that might make you sleepy. There is nothing wrong with taking naps, though, as long as you set some rules for yourself. Maybe set some goals. Like, allow yourself a 30-45min nap only after some or all of your school work is done (do the more difficult stuff first). Good Luck!
PS- Stay away from caffeine during the day & if you are going to try caffeine to wake you up, drink some only after school to avoid the let down effect of the sugar and the caffeine.
