Just curious, what makes you think you’re only getting REM?
Speaking as someone dxed with narcolepsy, a sleep disorder where you get a disproportionate amount of REM. There are a lot of conditions–sleep disorders and otherwise–that can cause excessive sleeping and daytime fatigue.
Not to say that it isn’t sometimes just a matter of sleep habits or consistency, but my advice is that it can’t hurt to speak with a doctor about your symptoms if you have the chance. :)
Well it can also be the case that I just have a very good dream memory, but I noticed that I can relatively easaly drift into a dream while being aware of my environment even when I was fully awake before. Not always though.
I also can remember having 4-10 dreams in a night. Of cause we don’t only dream in the REM sleep so it’s kinda hard to keep track of how much I actually sleep.
I probably just have a pretty good dream memory and have a very light sleep
Depends, I have allergies and during peak allergy times for me I usually get very congested. So during the yes, I found something this season that help clear my sinuses really well and ended up getting some pretty good sleep. And then other factors of course, such as if I’ve drank or yadda yadda
The last one is plain cheating
I get 8 hours of sleep almost every night. I can tell you I don’t feel well rested any day
I get between 7-12h a day. I still don’t feel restet.
Consistency and quality of sleep are also important factors, but so is your diet and the times you eat.
Feeling well rested after a night of sleep requires much more than “8 hours sleep”.
I sometimes have the feeling that I’m only getting REM sleep.
Of cause that can’t be true, but I don’t think it’s thaaaat far off.
