Polyphasic Sleep Day 2

Believe it or not, I hit a pretty large stump with day 2. I guess that my Day 1 was easy because I was actually getting extra sleep with the naps. On Day 2 however, my brain was beginning to go through sleep deprivation. I must say, it was very difficult to sleep and to stay awake. The problem is, trying to go to sleep within the time you set your alarm clock for. You must set it ahead of the 20 minutes by a time you think you will go to sleep by, if you dont make it then your stuck setting another time and so on.

I found myself staring off a few times later into the day. My dreams felt strange as well, it was like I was dreaming before I fell asleep. My reflexes are far slower and my brains ability to process is that of a 5 year olds. To put it to a test, I played a very in depth strategic game called "Company of Heroes". It takes lots of thinking and reflexes to adapt to whats going on, during the 8pm, 12am, 4am and 8am sleeps I found myself barely being able to do anything at all in it. After my 8am sleep though, I found myself being able to respond very rapidly, yet, I was not thinking ahead like I usually would.

Appetite is a pretty large thing as well, I have found myself wanting to eat far more (my body is more active, of course im going to eat more). Im also working out more then I usually do so if anything then this is a body builders ideal sleep, lol. I try to get a light work out after a nap so I will easily go to sleep for my next nap. Its strange though, when you are so used to calling something a day in reference to the amount of time you were awake, its not a term relative to me as my 'day' doesn't end when im ready to sleep for 8-10 hours. Its a continuous (sp?) cycle.

Right now, I'd have to say I am very relaxed with a slight uneased stomache. All in all, I think I am beginning to make an adaption and should see large improvements on Day 3.
