たくさんの情報があるため、多相睡眠に対して混乱してしまうかもしれません。このページは、多相睡眠を始めるための資料をご案内します。

コミュニティ

入門のアドバイスをもらうや多相睡眠について学ぶのに最も簡単な方法は、SubredditかDiscordのチャットルームで質問をすることです。

スケジュール選択

まず、 スケジューリング概要に目を通してから、仕事や勉強スケジュールに合うスケジュールを選び、そしてそのスケジュールページで詳細を読んでください。スケジュールの 一貫性や 暗期などにも十分に検討するようご注意ください。また、おそらく過酷になる適応過程を終えた後も、スケジュールを維持できる時間を確保してください。コミュニティの経験によると、ほとんどのスケジュールに適応するには少なくとも1か月は必要です。

準備

適応を始める前に、困難を最小限に抑えるためにはしなければならないことがいくつかあります。

• Recover from sleep debt. Going into adaptation with pre-existing sleep debt lengthens the most difficult part of it (Stage 3).
• Quit drugs, including alcohol, tobacco, and cannabis. Any of these drugs will greatly reduce the quality of your sleep, potentially making your adaptation impossible. Caffeine also has a strong negative effect on most schedules, and it is best to limit consumption to an insignificant amount.
• Get used to waking up from alarms immediately. A snoozing habit is an easy way to oversleep and ruin your adaptation. If possible, you might want to align one of the sleep or wake of your current sleep to the same time as your future schedule to make it easier.
• Prepare various things you'll need for the adaptation, examples of which may include:
  • Red goggles for dark period
  • Alarm clocks / smartphone apps
  • Productivity / Time tracking apps
• Find locations for you to take naps when situation may demand, such as:
  • benches
  • your car
  • your office desk
• Create a long list of things to do when you are tired. All the extra hours you have will work against you when you get sleepy. These things can include:
  • Exercise
  • Household chores
  • Video games
  • Hobbies
• Write down reasons why you want to do polyphasic sleep. Remind yourself about it when you lose motivation. A polyphasic adaptation can be one of the most difficult things you have done by this point, and having a motivational reminder would be very helpful.
• Read up further about polyphasic sleep on this wiki. Ask on the subreddit or Discord if you have any questions.

始める

There are several ways to start your adaptation. In most cases, the recommended way is starting cold turkey, where you simply start sleeping according to the schedule right from the start. At first, it is expected that you might not be able to fall asleep for all sleeps. Over time, the situation should resolve, as you reach later stages of your adaptation. The tiredness and difficulty waking up from sleep are also expected to worsen significantly, so make sure you are prepared for that.

プロセスのモニタリング

It is recommended that you try to log your adaptation to track your progress. One way to do so is with the logging bot on the Discord. Some users use spreadsheets to keep a record of their tiredness and waking feelings over time, which are also helpful. Sample spreadsheet 1 Sample spreadsheet 2
