I just read Snoopy's "tired of being tired" story.
I sympathise. I got home last Monday and each day since have felt the urge to sleep between 4pm - 7pm. Then I sleep normally through the night apart from waking up around 6am "full of beans".
Yesterday, Friday, was the first day I haven't napped in the day. I hope I've broken the cycle, it is a horrible thing.

Just stay up till the time you normally go to bed, then go to bed. Wake up the next day a little tired but you are on the right time, go to bed again at the correct time and the next day you are perfect. |

I've never really suffered jet lag like this before. I've been to a fair few time zones too.
I must be getting old.

Yep, that's exactly what happened to me. Having trouble eating too, only seem to be able to manage one meal a day. I'm going to get through a film though if it kills me! |
