Do you wake up wrecked every morning and say 'I'll be in bed at 9 tonight' only to find yourself sitting up at 1am watching a boxset on Netflix or scrolling endlessly on your phone?

For some people, it's a bad habit but for a lot of people, it's something called 'Revenge Bedtime Procrastination'.

The phenomenon is a response to working long days in the office, or at home, and feeling like you've no time to do anything for yourself. So you take revenge on what you've missed out on during the day by doing the fun things you enjoy at night. The only problem is, that's when you should be sleeping.

Louize Carroll is a chartered psychologist and she joined Dermot and Dave to explain all about revenge bedtime procrastination and how you can stop it from happening.
