I've heard that as we get older we have a harder and harder time getting the sleep we need. It's hard to fall asleep. Waking up is what's easy. Then it's even harder to fall back asleep.
Apparently I've reached that point, because I feel lucky if I can manage to get five or six hours sleep. Most times it's less. Sometimes a lot less. As an example, here's my sleep from last night...
Three hours and nine minutes. I should have taken a nap when I got home from work, but I wasn't tired.
No idea how that was even possible.
How can I function on three hours sleep?

Autosleep has been garfed for two weeks. One day I spent four hours bouncing from deep sleep to awake with no quality transition. And never more than four hours. Then yesterday, lo, it was fixed.
I see my sleep on my Home Screen via Apple Health, and really only open AutoSleep to take a screen capture. I just checked, and my AutoSleep has been working just fine… it’s within minutes of what Apple Health has been recording?
Yeah, now I’m in my 50s I swear I wake up in the middle of the night every single night. Multiple times. I long for the times where I slept the entire night through.
I blame most of my insomniac sleep issues on my almost 40 year IT career. The regular alerts that flood my phone have affected my sleep schedule. I need to use my Apple Watch to better track my sleep and to see how I can achieve better sleep.
