    I’m honestly thinking about trying a modified sleep schedule like that. No matter what at around 7pm I absolutely can’t keep my eyes open, and then get super awake between 9-10. So maybe I nap from 7-10 ish, then putter around from 10-4 or 5am, and then sleep from then till 10am. It works with my work schedule for the most part. Be an interesting experiment in any case.

      Sounds good - it’s important to get those 8 hours and listening to your body (avoiding screens when you can during dark hours since that’ll fuck around your circadian rhythm).

      Sometimes you can get away with 6 hours in total if you haven’t been overexerting yourself. I found that I slept like 9 -10 hours uninterrupted after exhaustive days but taking the naps and ensuring I have good sleep hygiene leads to me feel great with only 8 segemented sleep.
