Alternative Sleep Cycles

http://www.highexistence.com/alternate-sleep-cycles/ Most people only think that there is one way to sleep: Go to sleep at night for 6-8 hours, wake up in the morning, stay awake for 16-18 hours and then repeat.

Dr. Sara Mednick | Take a Nap

To design your own custom nap, drag the "wake-up time" dial to the hour you woke up, say, 7 a.m. Follow the hours clockwise until you reach the point in the day when REM and slow-wave sleep cross, in this case, 2 p.m. This is a perfectly balanced state in which REM and slow-wave sleep are equally proportioned, and where "The Ultimate Nap" occurs. Naps occurring before this crossing point will have more REM and naps occurring after will have more SWS. <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>

recurrent brief depression (RBD) - General Practice Notebook

Recurrent Depressive Disorder is defined in ICD-10 as: the disorder meets the criteria for a mild, moderate or severe depressive episode the depressive episodes have occurred about once per month over the last year the individual episodes last less than 2 weeks (typically less than 2-3 days) the episodes do not occur solely in relation to the menstrual cycle Recurrent Depressive Disorder (RBD) has exactly the same psychopathological cluster of symptoms as as in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) but RBD can be only distinguished from MDD only by the duration criterion (episode duration <14 days) and the frequency criterion (approx. 1 episode/month). Therefore RBD cannot be viewed as a 'milder form' of depressive diorder. Note also that the the ICD-10 requires independence of the menstrual cycle and an observation period of 1 year. http://www.gpnotebook.co.uk/simplepage.cfm?ID=1268383817
