Apprehensive narcoleptic waiting

Swirling through dental nightmares

Micro sleep

Before the exam

Doing fear and boredom

Tied to the exam chair

Day 8 - First Oversleep! 😴💤😭

Note: Feel free to skip or skim this post. There’s almost no useful information here. Why did I upload it? It’s a very honest demonstration of what it feels like to me when I say I’m in “zombie mode” or “exhausted”. You can see it’s extreme, lol! What you can’t see is how hard I have to fight every second not to give in and lay down for just a second. These states typically last about 3 hours for me (which feels like an eternity) before my second wind kicks in and I’m peachy again.

From 0:40-0:55 you’ll see I microsleep sitting up. Very interesting to see it filmed! Microsleep is a common symptom of sleep deprivation.

Shortly after I filmed this, I fell asleep right there on top of my bed fully clothed. I don’t remember lying down. I slept for 1 hour. This was my first “oversleep” (sleeping outside of my dedicated sleep hours)

I think I'm going back to sleep. This time I'll be conscious of this decision. :P

Well I lied down expecting to toss and turn for two hours but I literally just woke up for the most beautiful power nap and I feel ready for the world! :)

microsleep

A microsleep is an episode of sleep which may last for a fraction of a second or up to thirty seconds. Often, it is the result of sleep deprivation, mental fatigue, depression, sleep apnea, hypoxia, narcolepsy, orhypersomnia. For the sleep-deprived, microsleeping can occur at any time, typically without substantial warning.
