Here is an answer I found: whistle
Well, there are many mechanisms involved. But as a clinical geriatrician, I can offer you a different fact answer:
There's a difference between young adults and elders, attributable to common aging:
•Less deeply sleep
•More variation in time lasting
•Fragmented sleeping pattern
•Therefore, increased somnolence during day light hours
•Increasing in I and II sleeping phases (wich means light sleeping)
•Decreasing in III and IV sleep phases (when REM occurs) which are responsible for deep sleep and effective rest
•REM stays more or less the same itself, though
•"Polyciclic" sleep pattern, has been proposed, which means more little periods of sleeping time to reach a total effective amount to get rest
•The latent time to start sleeping is increased
These are some normal changes related to aging process, but there are many other factors as drugs, ill and environmental, that interact to result in what are you asking for and more.
Hope helpful. Best regards.

I wake up early because I go to bed early. Makes sense?

I've always been an early riser

Same habits with me. There is no science {and psycho-babble} behind that.

I sleep 7 hours every night,if I went to bed at 9pm I would be up at 4am,far to early smilenod.I normally go to bed between 12pm-1am ( unless me and the wife want an early night winkbar )----and get up between 7 and 8 pm. biggreen

When you are young, you never have time to sleep as long as you like because of school, work etc. When you are older and would have all the time in the word you can´t sleep long anymore even if you want.

Most of the older guys I know get up because they have to go to the toilet ( some 1,2 or 3 times oldmanwithstick )"Once your up you may as well stay up" they say .Lucky for me I haven't got a leaky washer ( yet ) and sleep like a log...clear conscience I reckon thumbup

How many times you take a piss is directly linked to the amount you drink.....I would hazard your ass squeaks when you walk party4 party4

Yes i don't drink much now,When I had a bar in Koh Samui i was on a bottle of Vodka a day.One of the reasons I moved up to Surin was to get away from the demon drink.Getting piss up every day is not big and its not cleaver .I now only drink( LEO ) when I go out for a meal or when I'm on holiday.I'm happy I've now out my drinking under control. smilenod :P... smilebar

Yes life is one big holiday redman .....but I've seen may people retire here in \Thailand and turn to the drink because of boredom ,luckily I can sleep all night without getting up yo pee out 6 big Chang/Leo/Singha .Some people seem to think you are a wimp if you don't get hammered everyday.....sad ::) ::)

Maybe we should be asking "why do people drink so much in Thailand?"
I'm sure there must be plenty of experience on this forum! party15 party15 party15 tired1

A big Leo an evening can't be bad, the a occasional heavy night once a month alcoholic I also had when I lived in Holland is a must for me, after that I just don't drink for a few days beceause they don't taste that well. nowinkbar

That might be an interesting OP/thread starter. Asking if one drinks more or less since their move to Thailand...

First much much more. Its like a culture here, evening after work you see many houses around town with people sitting outside with a beer or whisky/sode.
I couldn't go on like this and after 2 years I had to go back to the same routine I had before.
IE: not drink every day! confused4
I have noticed farang from some countries also have this culture of drinking so its not a big deal for them to drink a couple of beers every day but hey...I can't keep up with it like them.. hahaha
I drink once-twice a week or maybe only when I go out, its just that too often is not fun.. party9

When you are young you think you are immortal and are going to live forever,I used to drink heavily and smoke 60 a day.Since moving up to Isaan I have stop drinking to excess and 4 years ago I stopped smoking and I do feel healthier .If you look back over the last year how many of the farangs we know have died through drink or smoking related deaths.Don't get me wrong I still like a drink but as admin has said above moderation seems to be the best policy.It must be hard for so members who own Bars or Restaurants to keep their drinking down as costumers are always buying them drinks or they sit and drink/chat with costumers.
I thinks a healthier lifestyle leads to a better nights sleep,yes there is nothing wrong with a beer/wine with an evening meal,Its when you have to have a drink in the evening you know you have problems. smilebar

Yes, I could imagine that owning and operating any sort of drinking establishment - and keeping these circles - would lead to regular consumption.

Years ago back in the UK when I was young I had a lovely girlfriend called Dawn icon_heart love2
I was always up at the crack of dawn in those days thumbup
Do some people get up because their Thai Wives get up early.???
My wife always gets up early ( about 5.45 am ) to clean the house before it gets hot and get her daughter ready for school smilenod

Unfortunately this is not entirely true. If you're one of those people who have to get up twice a night for a pee, you can practically dehydrate yourself... and you still have to get up twice a night for a pee. It's just one of those things which happens, or may happen, as you get older. But it doesn't stop me having some more sleep afterwards!

My dearest comes from a farm background, naturally she's up early.
