i never really understood how this worked because even when you have a dreamless sleep you still know you were sleeping
what i am talking about specifically is when you will wake up at say 2am get annoyed you only slept 3-4 hours roll over to go back to sleep but “cant” then recheck your phone 1-5 minutes later and its suddenly 6-7am the entire process only feeling like it was minutes with no memory of sleeping at all

during dreamless sleep, you don’t really “know” anything. the “you” in your brain has left the building temporarily. If that “you” didn’t have a chance to remember falling asleep, it can be pretty disorienting when “you” regain consciousness. Kind of like how a windows computer lets you know if it was shutdown improperly the next time you start it up.

It’s called “sleep misperception” and it acute in people with insomnia. But the phenomenon is not just experienced in people with insomnia. Good “sleep misperception” and you’ll have a great understanding of the concept.

Also if you hit “snooze” on the alarm (give a 10 minute snooze) but it *feels like* it had beeped again 10 *seconds* later!
