No
What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them? :
I stay in bed far too long after actually waking up, and go to bed far later if I have access to internet.
Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study? :
Not specifically, but I'm always trying to get back on an earlier schedule, and this certainly helps me be aware of how divergent the schedule of late has been.

How long have you been participating in the Clock Your Sleep project? :
1 month or more
Has your sleep changed since you started tracking it? :
Yes, I'm getting more sleep
What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them? :
I had been getting less sleep than I thought.
Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study? :
Yes. I feel more motivated to get myself to bed earlier. This means closing the laptop, turning off the iPhone, avoiding reading one more article, choosing not to channel surf one more time. I have a new perspective on balancing all the things I like to do for "me" time and the value of getting enough sleep. A little less "me" time and little more sleep makes the "me" time higher quality.

1 month or more
Has your sleep changed since you started tracking it? :
Yes, in another way
How your sleep has changed :
I'm more aware of the actual amount of sleep I'm getting, and more aware of how I feel when I get up in the morning. I think of myself as being random in terms of when I go to sleep, when I get up -- but day after day, the time I turn off the lights and the time I get out of bed don't vary all that much, all week long. I'm impressed!
What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them? :
When I started, I was vaguely aware that I was waking up in the middle of the night, and now it's clearer to me why -- last few nights it's been because I was slightly chilly, sometimes my husband's snoring combined with my own stress, sometimes caffeine or alcohol.
Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study? :
Pushing myself to get about 30 minutes more sleep a night, and not staying up later than usual.

How long have you been participating in the Clock Your Sleep project? :
1 month or more
Has your sleep changed since you started tracking it? :
No
What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them? :
i am apparently a heavy sleeper - once i'm out, i'm out for the night (for the most part). i also sleep a lot (perhaps too much) on the weekends. i started cutting back on caffeine around the same time i started tracking my sleep patterns which has resulted in me going to bed earlier than i used to.
Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study? :
cut back on caffeine significantly since starting this study which helps me not stay up as late as i used to (which in turn means i get more sleep).
