Polyphasic sleep adjustment finished!
I believe that I have finally reached the end of the adjustment period. Yesterday was the first day I made it through without feeling excessively tired at any point. Today has been about the same. I’ve been loosely following polyphasic sleep now for 3 weeks. It has been enough time to conclude that it is a very real alternative to wasting your life with normal sleep.
I feel that the nights I slept 8 hours helped my body adjust and refresh itself. I will be using at least one monophasic sleep night a month and I suggest that others on this schedule should try it as well. It doesn’t seem to have any negative effects on the polyphasic cycles.
So what does the future hold? I plan on staying with polyphasic sleep for as long as possible. Since I will be attending school in a few weeks I may have to change it up a bit to accommodate classes. I think I may have to do two nights a week with 4.5h core and 2 day naps. If I do have to follow such a schedule I will track my progress. I think that it will work quite well and shouldn’t disrupt normal 6 cycle days.
