It is also possible to experience this syndrome on more forgiving schedules, through a combination of poor alarm use, mistakes, and mild sleep deprivation. Some people (including monophasic sleepers) often turn off alarms repeatedly when trying to wake up, in the hopes that they will be more rested after it. This is extremely detrimental for adapting to reducing polyphasic sleep schedules, as you will only go back to sleep more and more times as sleep deprivation builds up, making adaptation impossible.

This is extremely detrimental for adapting to reducing polyphasic sleep schedules, as you will only go back to sleep more and more times as sleep deprivation builds up, making adaptation impossible. The brain can quickly learn to disable the alarms unconsciously, which causes you to lose control of your waking time. With the great amount of sleep deprivation built up on some schedules, it is also possible to condition your brain to sleep through the alarm without even attempting to turn it off. Any of these happening would be fatal to your adaptation.
