I have VERY arbitrary sleep patterns. I sleep usually everyday, but I often pull all nighters, if I am playing videogames, or doing other stuff. Typically, my sleeping patterns can be the following:
Type 1:
Sleep at 20:00-02:00 (08:00 PM-02:00 AM), wake up in the morning, repeat. This is a normal sleeping pattern for me. I typically get 10 hours of sleep this way.
Type 2 (Don't try this yourself!):
Wake up at 06:00-10:00 (06:00 AM-10:00 AM), Stay up an entire 24 hours (or longer), sleep the next evening, and repeat. I personally do not recommend you trying this yourself, because if you cannot tolerate sleep deprivation, then you will feel ABSOUTLY MISERABLE! I am not really bothered by this, because I have been doing this for many years, and I am used to it. It takes YEARS of practice to be able to tolerate sleep deprivation, and even then it will sometimes fail, which brings me to...
Type 3 (This is what can happen after failing an attempt to pull an all-nighter):
Wake up at 06:00-10:00 (06:00 AM-10:00 AM), Stay up an entire 24 hours, sleep the next morning, and wake up in the afternoon (getting 6 or less hours of sleep) or evening (Getting 12 or more hours of sleep), and repeating, essentially reversing the polarity of your sleeping patterns. This can be corrected by doing a Type 1 sleeping schedule. I have been in instances where this can go on for over a week.
I have also one time (A long time ago) stayed up for 4 full nights without sleep. DON'T TRY THIS!
These are my sleeping patterns. They are not really that good, but I am used to pulling all-nighters. It might take years of practice to negate the effects of sleep deprivation, and even then, there is a risk of messing it up and reversing your sleeping patterns (and as I type this, I am currently in a Type 3 pattern) so you sleep in the morning and wake up at noon or evening. Don't make a habit out of this. So what about you guys?
