1. The outline and summary of my sleeping pattern is all together not entirely healthy, I wake up in the night three out of five times in a week and i don't get the 8.5-10 hours i need to healthily wake up in the morning and have the most productive day possible, as i would want. In fact the minimum of what i need is the maximum of what i'm getting. With the 7-8.5 hours of sleep i have been getting recently will leave me tired in the mornings and being on my mobile and computer will stop me from being able to get to sleep as easily in the evenings.
2. The short and long term affects of my disrupted sleeping pattern (due to phones, computers etc) before sleeping are all negative. The short term consist of being tired when waking up, finding it hard to get to sleep, and getting woken in the night.
the long term affects are all rather more serious and include losing concentration and ability to do school work properly.
3. Go to bed at a given time every night in complete darkness to start production of melatonin (sleep drug). Wake up at the same time and look into bright light for a minute every morning to quell produce of melatonin. Nap during the day to make up for lost sleep if you have had to lose sleep time.
4. Using mobile phones and backlit devices before going to sleep can have very negative affects on your health and day to day abilities.
It can can lead to mood and personality changes, ADHD-like symptoms, depression, lack of concentration and loss of academic skills.It takes longer to enter the first deeper stages of sleep and spends less time in the deepest most necessary stage of the sleep cycle.
