Polyphasic Sleeping in Ann Arbor

Hi, I'm Jeremy, a father of 3 and a computer programmer from Ann Arbor Michigan. I switched to a polyphasic sleeping schedule to try to deal with my obstructive sleep apnea more effectively. I started this blog to track my progress.

The most annoying thing about sleeping too long...

I think the most annoying thing about sleeping longer than I intended is that the quality of sleep sucks so badly. I lose the waking time and I don't have anything to show for it.

Here's a good example: I slept for 6 hours last night because I wasn't feeling well. It looks like I got maybe an hour to hour and a half of restful sleep out of that at most.

I'm going to try something new. If I, for whatever odd reason at the time, decide to lay back down immediately following a nap I'm going to use my CPAP machine. At least then I'll get SOME form of restful sleep, even though it might not be REM.

I also can't seem to shake the last bits of being sick. Now my sinuses are more clear but I have a sore throat. Argh. Hopefully sleeping with the CPAP will at least help me recover finally.
