Normally, it's called "dozing off" but if you want to sound fancy, you can says, "a stage of transition into sleep, including low-amplitude brain waves, and lasting only a few minutes".]]> 2022-09-27 16:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315956704 Frued's Wish Fulfillment miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315967022 So, some crazy guy a long time ago decided everything pertained to sex. Therefore, his obvious conclusion about dreams also included sex. He said everything in dreams were symbols, and most all the symbols stood for something sexual. He believed dreams were our subconscious fulfilling wishes that we couldn't live out in our waking hours (such as killing our father or having intercourse with our mother). So yeah, he was a bit strange.]]> 2022-09-27 16:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315967022 Information Processing miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315975591 This is a very "smart" idea. It involves a bunch of fancy words, but you, as a teenager who is lucky to have read this far, needs to know this: this theory says we organize information and put short-term memories into long-term memories during dreaming.]]> 2022-09-27 16:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315975591 Activation Synthesis Theory miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315977924 To put it simply, this theory explains that dreams are our brains' attempts to make sense of the random firing of neurons which happens during sleep. This would certainly explain why dreams can be so weird!

Not too complicated, huh?

Stage 3 and 4 are most likely to occur during the first half of the night.]]> 2022-09-27 16:54:58 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315981865 REM Sleep miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2315982164 Ok, don't get too discouraged with all the writing here (I can see that teenage look!) Just read it fast, and pretend you understood, yeah? Great.
Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep occurs throughout the night at intervals. This is when most of the time when people dream. People dream every night, but they don't always remember it. Their heart rate and breathing increases, and their eyes rapidly flicker back and forth as if watching a TV show. This occupies about 20% of an adult's total sleeping time.

In fact, teenagers should be after sleep like Toothless is after that fish. Sleep is a vital thing that keeps your inner noggin in working condition, ready to figure out new ways to get out of school.]]> 2022-09-27 20:08:45 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2316293259 Without Sleep miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2316299518 Without sleep, every single teenager will end up a little loopy. Their cognitive (brain) abilities will greatly diminish. The neurons (message system) will be slowed, like an Iphone that hasn't been restarted in 10 years. Gradually, the intrepid no-sleep-explorer will descend into a dark realm, and eventually just lose consciousness.]]> 2022-09-27 20:14:23 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2316299518 Sleep Apnea miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2318290054 This is when people quit breathing in their sleep. Their body wakes them up every time they run out of oxygen. Due to all the lost sleep, they end up pretty cranky. ]]> 2022-09-28 21:33:45 UTC https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2318290054 Narcolepsy miskitogirl https://padlet.com/miskitogirl/stpgpagcw3ko9x4b/wish/2318292275 This is actually unpleasant. Narcolepsy is when people suffer from uncontrollable daytime drowsiness, and randomly just drop off to sleep, no matter what they are doing.

That caught your attention, didn't it? Most teenagers believe (or actually have) insomnia. 
Insomnia is the 4 Hards:
  • hard to fall asleep
  • hard to stay asleep
  • hard to sleep in
  • hard to go back to sleep after waking

After studying pairs of twins, scientists can now prove the fact. People getting 7-9hrs of sleep were least likely to get depressed, at only 27%. People getting about 5hrs of sleep were the highest, at 53%. However, unusually, people getting 10hrs of sleep reported a 49% risk for depression. Interesting, huh?
