Interesting how easy it was to revert back to segmented sleeping. Good post, but I dare admit that I’m one of those “normal people” :)

Thanks!! It’s nice to know that I’m not the only whackjob who cringes and hisses at the idea of a “full-night’s sleep”! ;)

Hi ! I’ve laughed reading your report, and I deeply felt how bad you could feel after this third night ! :-)
Why did I discover polyphasic sleep so late ? Why have I been told until now that there was no alternative to this awful tunnel ??
1 month and a half now on Everyman, hope it’s for life.
Welcome ! :-)

Interesting. Interesting indeed. Thanks for sharing this info. I’ve only been properly polyphasic (3 hour core, 3 naps) for the last couple of months, and I’m really loving it. Wouldn’t go back to monophasic for the world. And my wife, too, is currently easing into a polyphasic schedule herself (4.5 hour core, 2 naps). She absolutely loves the extra time she can now have in the late evenings to recover from being a mother to 4 young children all day!

Hey, I’m right there with you.
I was on Everyman from March to May, and then was messing up and oversleeping too much so I decided to take a break.
I missed Everyman. Along with feeling half-dead after a full-night sleep (funny how that sounds different after being polyphasic), I hated how rushed the mornings always felt.
I’m back on Everyman since this past weekend. It has actually been harder for me this time, which is different from the experience of others I’ve heard.
But this morning was great.
Glad to be back.
Glad you’re back, too.
