same here... i thought this was my problem only... i never had this problem when i was studying for my medical school exams or school even... i think it has to do something with mle...i keep on changing my date by one or two days hoping that the extra time will help me study but in the end i end up wasting the new time...
i think the best solution to this is find a study partner... as when u are studying with someone u are less likely to get up in the middle.. u have a goal and u finish it with them... so best luck

Ooh man, that's a relief, I thought I was the only one feeling like this, it's kind of annoying when this happens. Lately what I'm doing is studying at the library, at least keeps me off some distractions.

friends,
please welcome me to join the wagon of ADHD.
When I start to hit the CK books,I somehow end up in the Novels.Believe me,I really don't know why thats happening to me all the time.
And when I start to use UW Q bank,I don't know who diverts me away from the Qbank to USMLE Forum,twitter,new york times,sports news,politics[I hated this topic all my life except before my exams!],sleep,even looking at the sky.
every thing seems to be sweet and pleasant other than study.
please friends, do something to save me from going downhill!
