I responded about why I do it in a sibling comment. If you ever find a link to other sleep cycles I’d appreciate it. I’ve heard of people taking many shorter naps before but not staying up longer and sleeping longer.
- perl4ever 9y agoI know I've told people not that long ago that I wished the day was a bit longer - 28 hours seems about right, so I could stay up a long time and sleep for more than 8 hours. But I started logging my sleep times after an appointment with a sleep disorder clinic and found maybe I am not sleeping for as long as I assumed - it's just that when my sleep is interrupted, I don't complete my 8 hours until 12 or so has passed.
- gumby 9y agoThere’s quite a bit in a google the 28 hour cycle specifically. A friend of mine did this for six months and was quite happy, except he missed his wife and child who I didn’t join him, so didn’t extend his experiment. I don’t remember why he chose 28 hours but iirc it was what he felt was his natural cycle. I don’t know if he reads HN but I just pinged him.
