In my opinion, what’s healthy is getting enough sleep regardless of bedtime. For many years, I didn't go to bed before midnight, but nowadays I'm sleepy around 10:30 p.m. So, this is the best time for me…

It depends on one's personal sleeping patterns and habits. There is no such thing as a general "best time to go to bed".

I usually end dinner by 10:30 pm (later during weekends) and do the dishes. After, I watch some episodes or a movie before going to bed, and sometimes I might read a few pages of something that I find interesting.
Since my high school days, I was more like an owl, and I hated (still do!) waking up early, but I never fell asleep in any class because even now, once I'm up, I set in motion and can't sleep again.
I remember I used to fight with my mum about my timing habits... See more I usually end dinner by 10:30 pm (later during weekends) and do the dishes. After, I watch some episodes or a movie before going to bed, and sometimes I might read a few pages of something that I find interesting.

I remember I used to fight with my mum about my timing habits because she didn't like me to keep the lights on, so sometimes I used a flashlight to read in my bed. ▲ Collapse

When you're ready to go to sleep.
And the best time to get up is after you've had enough sleep.
Next.
However, my preference is not included among the ProZ alternatives: it's around 3 pm. I'm strongly in favour of an afternoon nap, and there are medical studies showing the benefits. I normally sleep for around 6 hours per night, plus another half to one hour in the afternoon.

ProZ has become a real sleep clinic, especially with the site being so slow these past weeks.

Dormire mi fa stare bene, non dormire mi fa stare male. Il mio lavoro mi impone di svegliarmi presto motivo per cui sento la necessità di andare a letto presto. In generale seguo questo schema anche quando non devo lavorare perchè lo preferisco. In questo modo seguo il ciclo del giorno, mi ricarico con la luce del sole e mi rilasso con il bagliore della luna.
