DSPS - it works
i've been battling sleep issues for many years. here are my issues...i would get into bed around 11pm and would just lay there tossing and turning. i just could not fall asleep. sometimes i would look at the clock and it's 3am...sometimes 4am. then i would fall asleep and then have my alarm set to 730am b/c i had to go to work. most days i would snooze every 10 mins from 730 to 830 just to sneak in a little more sleep. it was terrible. i was tired all day long. and the lack of sleep really effected me both physically and mentally. on weekends...i would fall asleep at 4am or so and then would be able to sleep until 11am or noon. but then the bad cycle started again sunday night as i had work monday morning. i self diagnosed myself with having DSPS (delayed sleep phase syndrome) where my internal clock was all shifted up about 5 or 6 hours. i have been suffering with this for so many years. i tried warm milk. i tried soothing music. i even tried lunesta/ambien for a few days with no help. then i found this item on the internet. the first day, saturday, i set the alarm for 930am. woke up and sat with the light for 30 mins. sunday, i set the alarm to 830am and sat with the light for another 30 mins. monday, i set it for 730am and sat with it again. by the end of the week, i was falling asleep within minutes of hitting the bed at 11pm. i was naturally waking up even 10 mins before the alarm would go on. i could not believe what was going on. after 5 days with this little piece of machinery, my sleep issues have been fixed. i'm now 3 weeks into it waking up every day at 615am after falling asleep at 11. that's 7+ hours of sleep. i still can't believe it. i do sometimes wake up in the middle of the night after an intense dream but fall back asleep within minutes. i now only use this about 15 mins in the morning and my days are now normal. i have a ton of energy in the morning and am falling asleep when i need to. i am not a morning person. i don't think you understand just how badly i suffered trying to get up every day. and this thing fixed it. heck, i woke up today at 6am and worked out for an hour before coming into work. highly recommended!!!
