never use to bother me, but I've notice the older I get , the more it seems to be getting to me.

I HATE the time changes. It screws up people's circadian rhythm. It's most noticeable in the morning. It breaks our connection with nature and the gentle progression in the length of days throughout the seasonal cycle. We can't get used to knowing what time it is without looking at clock.

My pets don't know about the time changes. They stay on their normal schedules. Nature doesn't recognize daylight savings time. It's just a bizarre human construct. I think it's actually a mildly sadistic practice designed to fuck with our heads. It's a subtle way of enforcing compliance and teaching people that they controlled by the whims of authority.

I wish those behind the idea who act like gods would fuck off. Just pick a time and stick to it. Stop changing our schedules twice a year.

Of course Sunday night the Spaniel got me up right in the middle of the night wanting to go out and take a leak... But all in all, I adjust to the time change pretty well. I like the extra hour of daylight after work.

[Prettygurl12]

So... it just so happens that I switched shifts that night and it was a bad time lmao

I was working afternoons and then switched to days and it just happened to line up where I worked from 3pm-1am, got home at 2am but the time change made it 3am and then I had to be back at 6am so... this one kind of kicked my ass lmao

[eagle1951]

wow now that's bad timing for sure

[dovendyret]

When I had a set sleep schedule - it used to bother me a little. Took my body a little time to adjust but nothing that I didn't survive.

Now I don't notice it because my sleep schedule, follows my work schedule - I'm SO thankful for the fact that my phone readjust the time for me because of it.

I’ve felt no impact on my sleep, which is A+. Although, when I was at work it felt like 5pm despite it actually being 6pm and that was awesome because it meant I was closer to closing my station. So far only a positive impact for me lol

[Bratsondanielle]

I hardly know what time it is, nor do I particularly care. I wake up at first sun on the horizon when my rooster crows, and once it gets dark, I go to bed... for all I care it could be 246 o'clock it doesn't concern me at all

[InYourHead]

I hate the time switch. I wish I would go away. It makes it harder to get up in the morning

[lrina]

it's difficult for my sleep schedule, i go to bed fairly early since school starts early and i like to get up at 5ish am. so yeah, idrk if i'll be able to sleep that well tonight before school starts.

[Elliegirl]

Sunlight until later in the day makes me happy. 😊 I feel like I get more accomplished and have more time to play with my family and the dog outside in the yard after work.

[PhenomenalQueen]

I couldn’t sleep last night, I think that’s when my body/mind registered the time change. Lol I only slept an hour or so last night.

[Crazycookie23]

I definitely find myself to be more tired and more impatient.

[TrueConfection]

I took a 10 minute nap yesterday and am back on schedule.

[Likes2drive]

Just annoying when they set the clocks back in fall and still working in the dark, now I’m driving in the dark to work so I don’t see any daylight savings springing ahead

[exitseven]

It really does not effect me at all but I really like seeing daylight at 7 oclock yesterday.

[Guy13]

I know you miss the Sleep 😴.

I like the extra daylight. Reminds me Pool-Tennis dues are forthcoming 🏊‍♂️ which means USA 🏖 time is close.

[XXblack88]

It screws my sleep up the first couple of weeks. And sometimes I forget to turn the clock back/forward

[chulo1992]

No affect on me at all but the time seems to fly by so fast at night

[Flower7]

I don’t like it. I’ve been feeling a lot more tired for the past few days.

[RebeccaBI2000]

I am still off track. I go to bed early, but now I am away till 10. My dog still has not adjusted and waking me up at 4 am

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

It doesn't seem to affect me anyway but hard to say I like fast time

[Massageman]

This year was rough, and still is.
The first time my wife complained about it, too.

[douride2]

I fall right into daylight savings time with no problems.

[TexasRed95]

It doesn't really affect me anymore now that the internet changes it automatically.

[boobliker]

I from UK and it shit light as we have it different to the rest of the EU

[mrkdvsn]

We need only ONE "time" all year long.
No health probs, just a twice-a-year hassle

[driven159]

sense Ia retired doesn't matter but when I worked it took a week to adjust

[Waldoe]

Daylight Whaaaaat? the 'time fairy' changes my clock while I sleep, I never notice...

[clampfan101]

No effect as far as I can tell.

[SuccessfulHornDog]

I have been in a better mood all week

[joeldalton]

Makes me happier it’s lighter later.

[Iron_Man]

It takes me about six weeks to get used to it

[Snakeyes7]

Why do we even do this?

[noohair]

It has always been a negative for me.

[Sketti2021]

It's messed up my whole family lmao

[TheMijoPapiii]

It left me even more tired than before.

[Anonymous]

No, but I'm glad to see it go.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

No it's not.

[Anonymous]

In no particular way
