My sleep schedule has been very weird lately. Recently I was getting more sleep than usual, going to bed at hours odd for me. And now I've gotten maybe 4 hours of sleep since 4 AM. IE, I fell asleep at 4 AM, woke up around 8, couldn't get back to sleep. Was up a bit, then tried again later, no go. So I stayed up that time and went to Winco to do ( Read more... )

I am getting used to my CPAP at last, and it is adapting to me as well. Two nights in a row I got at least 5 or 6 hours sleep on the CPAP. My only problem now is that I don't turn as much in my sleep as I used to, so I keep getting woken up by pain in my side from being on it for too long. Still can't sleep on my back because the seal leaks when I ( Read more... )

For a long time, I've wondered if I have Non-24 sleep disorder. I don't actually know much about it, so it's idle speculation on my part, but I do have a number of sleep oddities, even if you don't count my sleep apnea ( Read more... )

So I went in to OHSU today to the sleep studies department for my appointment. It was the follow-up appointment I was supposed to have months ago, that I didn't go to the first time because they told me Medicare would cover the sleep study, then sent me a bill for $2000 ( Read more... )

Okay, I know part of my sleeping habits being weird is my being nocturnal, but I think there's more to it. I'm starting to wonder if my Otherkin-ness is to blame, at least partially. Traipah has longer days than nights, I forget how much longer. But I think Traipahni days are around twice as long as their nights. At the very least, their planet ( Read more... )

I read recently about a sleep schedule called Uberman. What you do is take 20 minute naps every 4 hours, and not much longer than that. They say that at first, you will feel like crap while you get adjusted to the schedule, but finally your brain gives up and goes with it, and instead of waiting to go into REM sleep (the kind of sleep that makes ( Read more... )

Had to go to bed early last night to be up in time to go to this "open interview" thing today. I ended up waiting a shitload times longer than the interview itself. There's going to be more interviews. I sure hope they hire me, or my bank account is going to be very grumpy at me, as it's downtown and requires bus or MAX to get to ( Read more... )

I think I might have some kind of sleep problem. It takes me forever to get to bed, and forever to wake up in the morning. Without any other impetus, I sleep well past the point when my body starts to complain, and end up with neckaches and headaches. I toss and turn at night, and I constantly have these half-awake dreams. I kept waking up last ( Read more... )
