Hi Sara! |

Thanks to this forum, I've become interested in polyphasic sleeping schedules. I've always been a fan of napping 1 or 2 times during the day (especially in the train) and I'm much more productive during the late evening/night. So, the idea of napping more, sleeping less during the night really appealed to me. |

Hi Sara! |

I support gay marriage... but only if both chicks are hot!
I've been polyphasic (everyman) for 3-4 weeks, and i dont think it is unhealty. There are some documents which show that there are people which were living polyphasic their whole life. Also the austronauts and sailors, and that kind of people and it is not unhealty. I've even read about stories which tell how polyphasic improved things, but not even one how they ruined something.. I am so sorry i had to stop em, but I just dont have time for the naps.. But i loved it the last days in being polyphasic.. And i think you should start em directly.. Not little-by-little. You get used to it easier, but in everymen you will be perfect after at least month, and good after 1.5-2 weeks. This is if you dont oversleep much and do that kind of things. The other thing that I discovered was, how I feel better after a nap, than after the "core". Well good luck, and better do some journal. |

@TravelerBetweenWorlds: that's interesting and what a coincidence, I just started reading on Dream Yoga several hours before you posted this message :-) |

Without being nasty, if anyone is going to take on a different sleep pattern, |

REALITY CHECK
Sorry for my complaining, DreamChaser. |

2 lucid dreams again during my extra (non-scheduled) night naps. |

For people who do this... can you study well and actually remember what you studied? Because I notice when I do homework or study for an exam, about 2 hours in and I'll start to feel REALLY tired. That's when I get some coffee and I'm fine for another 3-4 hours of school work. However, on a day I do no school work, I don't go through this. I feel fine all day. |

I have not enough experience with polyphasic sleep yet to tell you how easy I'm able to study. I'm still in the adaptation phase and will pick up my studies next week. I do/did have the same problem as you: I also get really tired when I study, even sooner than after 2 hours. If I get tired, I sleep a bit before I continue. I think you shouldn't try to study that long, have breaks more often. |

Dammit, just when I have the feeling that I'm getting quite used to napping, succeeded at having 3-4hrs core sleep for several days AND an amount of LD's I never expected, I feel I'm getting ill I was afraid for it to happen, since one of my flatmates has just recovered from the flu. So, I'm off to bed for the longest sleep I've had in weeks and hope for some nice, long dreams... |

I lived with a sleep cycle similar to this for around 2-3 years. No problems, no health problems. People need to get over the fear of sleep. |

Thanks for the reply, Robot butler! |
