I'm realizing that one of the reasons my sleep cycle is staying stubbornly lagged is that after ... maybe 8 years? my brain has finally learned how to filter out and thus sleep thru the complex set of wakeup alarms I came up with to combat such issues.

hopefully fixing this will only require some fiddling. I already have an alarm app which can demand math problems and puzzles to disable the alarm, I may just need to increase the complexity to wake me up more when solving them. #DSPD

I thought I got through the end of daylight savings without messing up my sleep, but here I am, wide awake at 3am. Delayed sleep phase strikes again. #dspd
Hit my ideal #sleep schedule last night πŸ˜‚ Where all my Delayed Sleep Phase people at? πŸ™‹ #DSPS #DSPD #nightowl πŸ¦‰

I would have done my French practise yesterday but my day was basically wake up, do a quick run to the Recycling Centre to dump stuff off for my sister, go to watch IDLES, and by the time I got home the day was done according to socio-chrono-norm abiding DuoLingo; despite me still having 7 hours of my day yet to go.

@ferricoxide @AaronDavid Over 50 and extremely rare for me to head to bed before 6am. #DSPD

tried a melatonin gummy to help me fall asleep and reset my circadian rhythm. that was more than 3 hours ago πŸ˜…β€‹ looks like I need to up the dose. my partner fell asleep almost within an hour after taking it πŸ˜΄β€‹ even though I woke up before him!

My current home screen is inspired by the UI design featured in cowboy bebop :)

it's always evolving so parts are unfinished, but a lot of the features are designed to help me manage my circadian rhythm sleep disorder

Not sure how it'll look after compression, but I'm really proud of the design work that went into it, its pretty much all custom made with KWGT and KLWP

Edit: had to post page 2 separately πŸ™ƒ

Exactly so. The number of times I've had to explain to healthcare professionals that I have a diagnosed sleep disorder and that no, I will not *ever* be able to make an appointment before 13:00 astounds me.

This will be unlikely to change, so simply offering me a different 09:00 appointment will not solve the problem. πŸ™„

Any neurologists out there with a background in sleep research who would be willing to be interviewed for a CNET article on delayed sleep phase disorder/syndrome?

I’ve got a young writer who could use some help. Long shot, but if you see this message and would be willing to help with an interview, let me know. Thanks!

@sysop408 Re: movies & media relating to sleep

I recently stumbled upon an excellent depiction of DSPD in an episode of a series called "Modern Love". Specifically: S2 E2 - "The Night Girl Finds a Day Boy".

The series is excellent for many reasons. Each episode is a short-form vignette. The vignettes show lots of diversity, and "S1 E3" includes an accurate depiction of bipolar disorder.
