06-A-Causes of Poor Sleep, Insomnia, Brain Oxygen Levels and Breathing

So what hours of the morning are these problems noted to appear? Would a often shifting sleep schedule where you may some times get up at night instead of the morning cause one to possibly experiencing symptoms as they woke up at night, or regardless if they woke up at night, we they be more likely to have a symptom the next morning after they've been up for hours?

Yes. You one wakes up at around 3 am and does some breath work or goes for a brisk walk for 15-20 min, the effects of morning hyperventilation could disappear. More info in Sleep Hygiene web page and Buteyko Lecture on the website NormalBreathing.

I don't understand this. Gorilla's sleep

13 hours on a soft bed of grass. They are

very relaxed and peaceful animals, they

are even vegetarians. How you square this with your theory? They are strong and healthy

The physiology and living habits of Gorillas is much different that of humans to the point general comparison is impossibly complex. If you specify exact mechanisms, maybe some parallels can be drawn.

'Peaceful' is a relative term; they have the full range of animal tendencies. Watching 'Gorillas in the Mist' romanticizes their nature.

Vegetarianism is irrelevant here too.
