I totally understand how frustrating that can be. It’s tough to manage your own sleep needs when your roommate has such a different schedule. Have you considered talking to your roommate about it? They might not realize how their habits are affecting you.

If it’s possible, discussing a compromise on study hours or even looking for a quieter space could really help. You’re definitely not alone in this; many people deal with similar situations at some point. Good luck!
