Poll: how many people here can WILD straight from being awake all day???

[Liquidaque]

It's simple... can you? Yes, or no.

[Seroquel]

Yes, and I'm going to attempt to right now. Goodnight, wish me luck!

[AURON]

I have....but it's so rare that it's not even worth it. Since I've been a member (07) I've only done it 3 times. And that's with irregular sleep. So who knows....I could have have had REM rebound.

Auron is right. If you look at a chart of sleep cycles, you initally go into cycle 1, then 2, then 3, then a brief amount of REM sleep and back into the cycles. They get less deep and have more REM each time. If you're sleep deprived, or you're going to bed at a much later or earlier time than usual, you might have a tiny period of REM before your body/brain begin the cycles. It's relatively rare, though, and the quality is poor because your body is trying to get out of REM sleep. I tried to WILD at the beginning of each night, but it left me frustrated and, I would say, detracted from my real WILD efforts. I'd be lying there, forcing myself to stay conscious, and probably end up with some fake SP or faint feelings that I would assume were HI. And then I'd never get anywhere. So when I WILDed during the night, I would be expecting those fake feelings, and it really set back my WILDing progress. Trying to WILD at the beginning of the night ended up just losing me sleep.

I think Seroquel has a lot of REM rebound cause he has a pretty erratic sleep schedule. I've never WILD without sleep prior before.
