I take melatonin and mirtazapine and they don't help me much. Didn't even know I had a YBI until last week and I've had it for a while. Hopefully treatment will help and if it does I'll post about it!

Absolutely. I found my natural rhythm is about 17 hrs on and 7-8 hrs off. It doesn’t make for good routines

Always. Had to quit my job at the end of 2021 and got on a good sleep schedule for a week and since then it has been so inconsistent.

I quit my job too. I have been trying to regulate my sleeping habits but I can’t seem to get consistent. I’m always tired and don’t wake up feeling rested. No mater how much I sleep.
