Sleeping

[Rimonskii]

I know the feeling, used to happen to me.

I got two jobs, work 7 days a week,go to gym 3 times a week and I study at home. Planning and time management is the key.

Drink plenty of water, seems to help me with the stress. And always keep reminding yourself that it will all be worth it at the end.

I love to sleep. Actually doctors advised that every person should sleep 7 to 8 hours daily at night. And child should sleep 11 to 12 hours daily at night. That was the most important to stay healthy and also good to keep your body fit. And if you want to gain weight then you should also sleep well and also eat well.

I'm a terrible sleeper. Should go to the doctor but it seems I'm happy enough to take medical advice from anonymous users on a car forum. Downloaded the app and will see how I go.

We seldom offer bad advice.

Now sign over your car collection to me; this will save you hours of headaches and servicing costs.

Birds I will gift you my Mazda6. I'm sure that's what you meant. New tyres, brakes and wheelbearings - cracking car. Sleep app worked well but at this stage is proving to be more of interest than help. It shows 5 points of deep sleep and 1 point of awake over 8 hours. Deepest sleep at 4.00 and a wake up time of 5.12. Alarm was spooky as it goes off just as you are waking anyhow....Seems like a coincidence until you remember how it works.

The acceleromiter dooby in the iPhone is very sensitive and I was impressed how well it worked on its test.

Can't get a screen dump or an image file off the phone so can't share. Will take technical assistance.

Above performance assisted by an over the counter sleeping pill.

Edit, found a way to get the image. Not sure about file format. See how we go.

I'm finding I'll sleep pretty damn well for at least 3 or so nights after visiting wonderland...

I tried the sleep cycle app(thought it was shit) and was more concerned about having my phone right next to my head all night.

They just learn your usual sleeping pattern, then time the alarm appropriately to wake you outside of REM sleep.

That and you can use them to see your own sleeping pattern for insight.

how is that helpful knowing that i have to get up at 7 to get to work on time and that i probably wont be asleep before 11-12.

Also do they work with someone else sleeping in the same bed?

[L33SH]

Yes they do work with someone else sleeping in the same bed, you have to have your phone close to you for it to work. It didn't work if I had the phone on the bedside table

[Basti]

they work via the accelerometer in the phone. so it need to be able to feel you tossing and turning. they are useful because it will wake you at 6.47am when you are at a lighter stage of sleep vs 7am when you may be going back into a deeper sleep. basically its less of a shock to the system and you dont feel as groggy when you wake

All you need for easy waking is an awesome girlfriend

For the record Leesh, you don't need to have it right next to your head. There should be a "test" mode on the thing where you can trial different spots on your mattress. Just chuck it into test mode, put it on the other side of your bed from where you have your head, and move around a bit. It should make sounds to indicate it's picking up your movement.

[L33SH]

Hmm, oh well I don't use it anymore anyway, but thanks Troy

In other news my alarm just didnt go off this morning; had it set like normal, so today is going to be so f**ked.

friggin iPhones

Not a matter of worthy dear. This is sometimes due to burden of work that you have done for last few days or weeks. Or may be due to the style of sleeping that you have adopted. Sometimes you feel comfortable in new one but not your body organs. So, try to relax and calm down.

Hi David_AA... Do you enjoy foot in yo ass?

[XGTRX]

Melatonin one hour before sleep and GABA before bed. You sleep like a baby but wake a bit groggy. Suggested this to a lot of my friends and relatives...worked for every one of them.
