Alertness Diary
I’ve been monitoring my alertness throughout the day, using the Alertness Diary on Alertness Matters. It’s free. Each hour I rate how alert I am using one of four categories:
- Alert
- Low Energy
- Sleepy
- Asleep
It’s been a learning experience. I’ve noticed how my bedtimes go in cycles. I’ve also noticed how I don’t get as much sleep as I thought I did. Even with the sleep apnea, I don’t spend enough time in bed.
The website, Alertness Matters, is run by Cephalon, the same company that makes Provigil. Even though Cephalon sponsors the website, I didn’t see any ads for Provigil on the website.
