Don't lose sleep over it. When people say they can't handle the change, that it knocks them for a whack, they're deluding themselves.
Sleep is a very gentle tyrant.
In one study he did on college students, only 3 percent went to bed within a half hour of the time they did the night before. Even though students' schedules are highly irregular, the findings are not out of line for the general population, he said. And when they want to is not the same time every night. Because people lose sleep on weekdays anyway, an additional hour is not going to matter, Webb said. Research shows that nearly everyone extends their sleep by about an hour on weekends, a reaction to not getting enough sleep during the week, he said.
