Oura ring in regard to narcolepsy
It's hard to take some of the suggestions the ring gives when your someone who lives with narcolepsy. I have found my body pretty much stays in stress mode because if it doesn't I can't stay awake. Even worse than falling asleep is having to wake up! For so many years I have jolted awake when I catch myself dosing because it's not excepted in society to randomly fall asleep when your body needs too . I'v spent so many years trying to keep going that it's like my body is stuck, when I try to relax it says NOPE....don't do that.....you'll fall asleep.....over the years I feel like my body has adapted to me trying to override its cues. It will create anxiety, eat, fumble through crap, roll on autopilot, or whatever just to keep going. I hate narcolepsy because to function in this world I have to deny my own body's cues just to try and be safe or keep up with the world . It's hard in a person's soul. I would like to see Oura have more insight and suggestions when it comes to sleep disorders. I am great that the AI is able to take the insight I give it with my data and at least give me feed back that makes me KNOW I'm not just lazy. When no one understands or can see the stress I deal with in a daily basis, at least my ring does.....I appreciate that more than anything!
