Did you just set it to 90 and closed your eyes or did you add a couple minutes of fall asleep time?
@Defhrone 2 роки тому
yeap, it's a powernap. sleep runs in ~90 minutes cycles, so you can also double it up, and apperantly the first 2 sleep cycles gain you the most rest (~80%) of the entire night. Although it's adviced to not do a full cycle (or atleast not more than 1) so you don't reset your circadian clock by accident

My dad has sleep apnea. Before he got a C-PAP machine, he was eating a lot and drinking a lot of caffeine, which really took a toll on his health and mood. Once he started the C-PAP machine, he lost a ton of weight! He was overeating to compensate for the lack of energy, so now that he was getting good sleep, he could eat less and still feel full. Just goes to show how sleep apnea really does affect the body.

It's so good to see sleep paralysis brought up in such a big and public facing manner. Anytime I mention it to friends or family, how bad it is, how terrifying and panic inducing, how the "hallucinations" aren't just dreams, that every part of your mind believes completely that you are awake in real life, to the point that there's hardly a difference, I just get a lot of raised eyebrows and facial expressions that suggest I'm some extreme sort of crazy, followed by a laugh coz it's weird sounding. I wouldn't wish the sleep paralysis on anyone. I'd like to try more to lucid dream, but it's horrifying to think that I might inadvertently increase my minds ability to slip into SP. Hopefully more people become aware through more public discourse. I'd never heard of SP until it got so bad I looked up what was happening, thinking it was the onset of some sort of severe diagnosis.

Been experiencing sleep paralysis since I was a teenager. Learn to deal with it by not panicking and just be "aware" while I'm going through it. But I'm hoping I don't experience it so often. It's actually scary once I give in to the feeling that someone/something is staring at me. But since researching about it becomes easier, I know now how to react. When I'm going through it, I'm aware and usually think "Okay, this is sleep paralysis. I'm not scared." I have noted that the image of someone staring at me is brought by the feeling of being scared. That the frightening image is a result of feeling scared. It's not that I'm scared because someone frightening is looking at me.

I can remember being 5 and having sleep paralysis. Once I read that you should try to move small parts of your body - fingers, hands, toes, feet, maybe try to shake your head. It's easier to do that than to sit straight up as we usually want to do. It has always worked for me

Sometimes insomnia is caused by things other than what Dr. Iliff referenced. I had a PTSD incident 22 years ago and haven't been able to sleep naturally at all since then. My central nervous system was affected. I have to use sleep meds to sleep every night. I know this is rare, but I do wish sleep experts would stop assuming that insomniacs just need to practice good sleep hygiene, get exercise, meditate, turn off the computer, etc. etc. etc. I'm sure this helps some, but it doesn't help us all.

@katrinadowey7659 Рік тому
Same here. It's been 15 years and without sleeping aids I would have some serious issues (also Bipolar and without sleep I'm guarantied to turn manic). It's not for a lack of sleep hygiene or "calming down". My body goes into full alarm system mode when it gets dark. No amount of "not looking at my phone" will cure that. Unfortunately. I'd love for it to be so simple.

Have you looked into shake therapy for your PTSD? It's practicing how in nature you shake out the trauma like when animals tremble in fear. It's used with military men and others in severe PTSD situations.
@cklein907 Рік тому
I was looking for comments like this. I often feel so invalidated and dismissed when people give advice on how to sleep better, especially when that advice is essentially "try harder". I feel like it's a dead giveaway of someone who does not have trouble sleeping. The anxiousness that is present during bedtime for people who have trouble sleeping (for whatever reason, be it a mental health diagnosis or life stress or some other reason) can be so intense and those coping skills we've developed to manage that anxiousness (that are often listed in bad sleep hygiene) are really hard to let go of. I think it would be so validating for someone to just recognize that experience first before offering solutions.

I had sleep paralysis a few times as a pre-teen/teen, and I remember it being completely terrifying. At that time no one had ever talked about such a thing around me. I think mine must have been due to going through adolescence, because it eventually stopped happening at all. But 25 or so years later, I still remember it with a completely viceral sense of fear.

I remember having sleep paralysis multiple times in one night at the beginning of the pandemic. I put some music to sleep but it backfired on me, on top of that there was the immense stress of being stuck and uncertainty for the future. After two years I still get paralysis but they are less frequent. Every three or four months I have one that is truly horrifying that I scream myself awake, but other than those I quickly realize whats happening and try to wake myself up. I am so used to it that I can't actually believe there are people who have never experienced it.

I would have loved to hear his tips on how to get rid of sleep paralysis. It's literally the scariest thing ever. One thing that helped me get rid of it (mostly) is going to bed before I get crazy tired, like can barely keep my eyes open kind of tired. That way I limit the chances of my body jumbling the switches between awareness, body activity and dreams. This, I find, limits the sleep paralysis chances when I'm going into sleep. For the sleep paralysis when the body is coming out of sleep, I'm not sure, I generally just tried convincing myself that what I was seeing/feeling was not real to limit fear and kind of get movement back a bit faster

Here’s a question for next time: Considering how much we still don’t understand about sleeping and dreaming, couldn’t purposely and frequently lucid dreaming actually have negative effects?

One thing that is not mentioned, as usual: keep your meal times consistent. This helps your body to stay in a rhythm. When you need to change rhythm start by eating one hour earlier, then go to bed one hour earlier. You will find it easier to fall a sleep as your bodily functions also are a bit early.

Another thing I've found to help with jet lag: your eating schedule is closely tied with your circadian rhythm! Humans are not naturally nocturnal, but we can be (temporarily) due to adapting to a new diet. Think of a hunter/gatherer who can't find their main food source during the day and as a result has to hunt at night. SO! This is the trick to combating jet lag: skip meals when traveling until your new destination's time is about an hour or so before you want to sleep, then eat your dinner. Your body will recognize the meal as a new schedule and adjust accordingly. Not sure if this is super scientific but it seems logical to me and has personally worked.

I used to have AWFUL nightmares (like, caused sweating and stopped me sleeping the rest of the night I'd be so scared) so I taught myself lucid dreaming so I could either a)change the nightmare into something better or b)wake myself up before it got too bad. Pro tips for anyone who wants to try to learn: a dream diary is best; don't have to go into detail, but write down basic stuff you remember - you'll start noticing patterns, and you'll recognise them in your dreams. Another tip is the Inception route; draw a unique symbol on the back of your hand, and make a habit of looking at it - when you don't see it, you're dreaming. Be VERY careful with lucid dreaming: if you wake up mid-sleep cycle, you could get sleep paralysis, which is one of the most unpleasant things ever and the only way to deal with it is to wait until it passes.
@Psilocybin77 8 місяців тому
to add to the dream journal, the vast majority of dream memory is lost in the first 10 seconds of waking, so it's recommended to keep a light-pen to write down the details as fast as you can. This helps to distinguish between dream vs waking logic.

"Oh so that's what happened" was what I thought when I heard the explanation of sleep paralysis. I never had anything like hallucinations, but I did "wake up" being unable to move, which slowly changed to limbs feeling really heavy, and once I broke through that everything was fine. After the first tme it happened I just relaxed, "it''l fix itself" was the thought, and it turns out that was correct. I've only had this happen like five times over the past 20 years, so nothing too crazy, but it's always memorable.

What I notice about lucid dreams, there are just different dreams. Some dreams, in my opinion, can be "controlled" or the person can navigate where they are headed or interact in the dream. There are some dreams that play like an unskippable ad. Other dreams play like an interactive videogame and some parts are the cinematic events you cannot skip and must watch to get a gist of the story.
