I understand how difficult that can be.
I suffer from nocturia (diagnosed as non pathological after many rounds of tests all turning up negative). In a typical night I get five hours max of contiguous sleep and have started sleeping (by that I mean the in bed duration) nine to ten hours as an attempt to compensate for not being able to stay asleep.
I've always been curious about the difference between time spent in bed and actual time in deep sleep and their equivalence (or exchange factor).
Have you also resulted in increasing how long you are in bed to compensate?
- stephengillie 8y agoI've used Sleep for Android to track my sleeping patterns since about 2013. I consistently get 3-4 hours of deep sleep per night in 6 hours of actual sleep. Sometimes it's simpler to watch an hour of YouTube (or post on HN, upvotes are easier at night), than to get up and lay back down several times. The app pauses sleep tracking when it can tell you're awake. This makes it annoying to see I've been sleeping from 9pm until 7am, and only got 6.5 hours of sleep.
