A sleep tracker. The worst thing about sleeplessness is the fear of sleeplessness. Once i saw that my sleep wasn't anywhere near as bad as it felt, it helped me a lot to cope with it.
Which model / type of trackers are you using?
Not the person you replied to and I have really weird needs from a sleep tracker but I just use a spreadsheet
I've used "sleep as android" and I'm kinda tempted to try pokemon sleep just for fun, but they can't really replace my spreadsheet
Thank you!
You're very welcome 😊
But Excel won't track sleep phases, or was that in a recent update?
I use google sheets and just made a sleep tracker, initially matching the sleep log my specialist had me do on paper for ages. Does excel have like a template or something? Mine is a chart of time stamps and values I have it automatically calculate, with checkboxes for goals and whatnot. At some point it'd like it to graph it so I can see sleep phase/timing but currently it works okay for my needs with the values I have it calculate
It'll be reaaaaally hard for me to make it graph since time is circle/spiral and the style graph/chart I like requires breaking that circle each day, but my sleep timing changes over time... But I still want it to, itd be so pretty! 🥹
edit: I found this pic of someone's setup with the style graph I like! :)
(The link to the superuser question where someone asked how to make it in case anyone wants it https://superuser.com/questions/1651357/creating-a-sleep-chart-in-excel-with-dates-on-y-axis-and-time-on-x-axis)
I've had Fitbit, Samsung, and Apple smartwatches.
Apple is the best for health and sleep tracking, in my personal experience.
Whatever comes with the smartwatch I'm using at the time. Right now I have the OnePlus Watch 3.
Thank you
