fuck ! my mate was complaining how he had a shit sleep that night as well!

Feeling crummy? Don't know why? Look at the earth's magnetosphere modeling.

See if your personal disturbance matches up with magnetosphere disturbance.

I'm disabled by vestibular nerve damage; I feel crappy everyday.My daily life feels like riding my imaginary mechanical bull, on my imaginary boat, on my imaginary roiling body of water - thus my user name. I feel worse when under low pressure weather systems. I noticed though when the weather was clear and I was still feeling extra aggghhhh that our magnetosphere was compressed or skewed at those times.

I am making no claims just remarking on my experiences and observations.

Interesting, always good to hear new possibilities. I'm unfamiliar with your condition, could you elaborate, and did the sensitivity to weather/geomagnetic phenomena only begin with the onset of your condition?

Numerous chemical sensitivities brought adult onset obstructive asthma with chronic sinusitis and bronchitis, leading to chronic BPPV (the otoconia, little stones in your inner ear system get pushed out of place), which in turn caused vestibular (balance system) nerve damage over time. The sinus issues always reacted (more swelling, pressure) during low pressure systems. I think we all react to magnetosphere anomalies to some degree or another. Observation allows for pattern recognition of what otherwise appears to be chaotic or random occurrences. I guess since I can't control how I feel (miserable), I try to understand everything that may contribute to it. (sigh )

How've you felt the last three hours?

There's been a global geomag storm of Kp 4 over the past three hours.

(I am also greatly affected by geomagnetic anomalies.)

Do you also monitor Solar flaring and CME arrival predictions?

I had to go lay down for awhile 6 to 8.

I go here as well as the other link I posted.

slept well last night... northeast US.

For North America, the night of the 29th is tonight.

yes... but yesterday was still yesterday. don't see how the calendar date would be relevant to a global phenomenon.

but I guess ill see how I sleep tonight

I'm aware, but I was just joking around because OP mentioned the specific date, being last night.

NYC here. Haven't slept yet, and I was tired all day. Can't get to sleep- and this never happens.

Also Northeast US and slept fine

Maine, USA here. I slept very sound, in fact more so than usual. However, and I find OP's post very interesting now, the night of the 27th I went to bed and I could hear that damn humming noise again. 1st time in over a year. I actually got out of bed and looked around outside. Nothing was out there but, like the last few times I could hear it...no matter where I was. It sounds like it's off in the distance. Anyway, I went to bed and slept like shit all night. When I closed my eyes to try and sleep, I saw light through my eyelids as if there was a light on in the room. I was like wtf? I woke up a cranky bastard, went to work and hardly said a word to anyone all day.

Also, sometime ago, I ended up on some new agey kind of site...there was an article about mass sleep disturbance. They were saying that sometimes peoples sleep patterns change for several months after these "events".

Same here. Northeast and I slept like a rock.

Me too.

This entire thread is an example of selection bias and confirmation bias, and is really a good study of the birth of a conspiracy theory.

The most likely people to respond to this thread are people who didn't sleep well.

I am guessing that this will strengthen your belief that there is some global phenomenon that interrupted everybody's sleep. Now all you need are a couple of popular memes to explain it. Already in this thread, people have mentioned the magnetosphere, and HAARP.

Now every time there's a solar flare that disturbed the magnetosphere, you can ask if people had trouble sleeping to strengthen the association in your mind.

This is exactly why we need science to tell true from false.

The most likely people to respond to this thread are people who didn't sleep well.

Wrong. Your theory is off if people here are reporting a different sleep pattern than other nights. So the whole confirmation bias you mentioned does not apply. I can't imagine a person who has chronic sleeping problems would respond to this thread. Bye.

No, he said:

The most likely people to respond to this thread are people who didn't sleep well.

And I agree. Everyone has a rough night every now and then and this sub has a considerable amount of subscribers, so it doesn't matter on which day one would ask "did you sleep well last night?" and the results are about the same.

I slept normally last night, didn't also hear anyone else near me complain of an abnormal night.

Mmm, good points. I knew this post was flawed, but was too tired to think of a reason why.

The magnetosphere does affect animals though, it's an interesting idea to look into.

You're right, nothing wrong to investigate such if you really feel there's been something weird affecting peoples sleep!

Correct. Anecdotal evidence can be a basis for further inquiry, but it's flawed science.

Science also has a brick wall up to prevent listening to much anecdotal evidence in some cases, such as citizens living near fracking wells who can light their tap water on fire. Paid industry "science" shills declare it's merely methane and a common occurance.

So I can see a divide on both sides.

It's the 29th here in north America..guess I'll find out tonight.

Same here. All though I did sleep like a baby last night (only about four hours though... Stayed out longer than planned)

I had an unusually high fever (102.3F) despite not feeling ill or sickly at all during the day. My girlfriend lurched from our bed at around 4am pst and had the worst nosebleed I've ever seen. I'm a little freaked out now.

I would be too! Keep an eye on those nosebleeds if it's a new thing, sounds like it was a rough night :/

Midwest U.S. here. I had a terrible night's sleep (if you can call it sleep) last night. Felt very nauseous the whole night. Also, holy crap, not even thirty minutes after reading your comment, I had an awful nosebleed that lasted for ten freaking minutes! I'm sitting here right now with a tissue rammed up my left nostril. I'm very weirded out right now!

Who has a Geiger? Sounds like massive rads, kids.

What. The. Fuck.

[deleted]

I usually have a bathroom break or two as well, always consume too much water before I sleep heh.

I received a weird email the other day, was from a new-age friend who is currently traveling in Denmark, her email had a very urgent tone about something happening , of an astrological nature, at around 2:04am EST the 29th. She knows I like to smoke and so warned me not to high around that time "...worst case scenario, possession could occur." maybe whatever this astrological event was is relevant?

were u aware of the solar eclipse?

http://www.space.com/25676-solar-eclipse-photos-thrill-skywatchers-australia.html

one can only guess; a response to this thread; about a nosebleed, an eclipse wouldn't cause that - i hope it wasn't due to HARRP,

strange things are happening these days : /

HARRP?

Can anyone make the map below look back 12 hrs?

Crap sleep last night

Awful here in Ireland. Can't believe I just deleted all my lovely smooth sleeps, but this is definitely the worst in a while (recorded nightly with Sleep As Android)

Started tossing and turning around 0330 GMT. Not the most tired today though

U.S. checking in here, not the 29th, but had a shitty night last night. Tossed and turned all night and woke up with a splitting headache.

Not to go all new-agey on you all; but, according to feng shue, you are supposed to align your bed north to south to remain in harmony with Earth's magnetic field as you sleep.

Check the magnetical pole movement over the past 6 months.

Gyroscopic compass bed! Now there's a kickstarter for you.

My 7 month old woke up around 4am and could not fall back asleep which is very unusual for him

wouldn't this thread have started last night?

/paranoid

Um...dunno, now I'm confused...

I was extremely tired yesterday, almost fell asleep at work. But yet had a bad night sleep with nightmares which I almost never have. I live in Sweden.

It's the 29th here today so not sure yet

Although I have been having vivid dreams the last couple of days

Similar scenario here in west Kerry Ireland last night! Full on internal dialogue for hours which I just couldn't silence! Freaky stuff. It's the 29th here tonight. I'll update in the morning for a bit of craic!

Edit: ok, worst nights sleep of my life just ocoured. A nightmare that I remember vividly (I usually never remember my dream) I wasn't the main character I was on some sort of medical looking bed completely unconcious while others we trying to wake me up with some peculiar looking syringe. Before they could empty this syringe into me they were shot dead. This was followed by the same man that killed them jamming another syringe deep into my chest. I woke up with crippling sleep paralysis with what felt like a huge weight on my chest, it felt like my heart was going to explode as I struggled to breathe. This was followed by the unmistakable sensation of static electricity pulsing through my head with an audible crackle! After finally breaking through the paralysis and gasping for a breath, I tried to force myself back to sleep which is where my night took a turn for the 'weird'. As I shut my eyes these strange looking lines emitting a purple Hugh started aranging themselves paralel to each other at a slight angle and then further into much more complex shapes which culminated with what could only be described as 'x-ray vision'?! I had to keep touching my eyes to make sure they were closed as I consider mysel to be a rational man. To my surprise they were shut tight however I could still see everything in my room. I don't really know what else to say other than I am slightly disturbed by the whole experience. As I read through this I'm perfectly aware that it sounds a bit like ramblings of a mad man and I am not usually compelled to participate in any thread on social media sites, however, I can probably chalk this down to one of the most profound experiences of my 26 years on this planet and I'm not sure there are many people I can share this experience with...

Bad sleep here east coast US. Also very crazy dreams last two nights. Horribly realistic dreams.

I've had terrible sleep in Atlanta, so have 3 other people I've talked to. I had it on the 26th and 27th though

Have all you seen the planes with the long lanes?

not sure if i woke up because dog needed out or not but i was up at about five am. slept in later than normal too after i fell back to sleep

Several bouts of sleep paralysis, i could see even though my eyes were closed) i knewmthey were closed because when I moved my hand (which I could see) it moved at about a frame every 2 to 3 seconds. Now, people who have never experienced this let me tell you: youll be fully aware and able to think, feel, and also breathe and make decisions, but you are completley utterly powerless to move. At around this stage, (paralysis but conscious) you have to consciously "will" your mind to kind of....burst through the paralysis into conscious and able to move state. Heres where the weirdness occurred for me last night: after each attempt to "burst" through the paralysis, I would hear a clearly audible electric buzzing noise which would increase in intensity in correlation with how much you try to "resist" the paralysis. After the fourth break through attempt I succeeded in waking up (of course accompanied by a giant gasp for breath (like you see after people dive for a long time)). When I regained control and blinked or closed my eyes, I could see geometric patterns (beween being 4 and 7 sided) with numbers next to the shapes, not unlike a schematic. They were animated, moving and blinking a light green and light blue color. The effect was similar to staring at a brightly lit sign, then looking away and closing your eyes, leaving the "imprint" in your field of vision.

I'll take a wild guess: psychoactive substances played some role?

Yes mariuana only a few hours before bed.

Heh okay. When I was younger and consumed a considerable amount of marijuana every day I had similar experiences while sleeping, except usually these happened right before I fell asleep. Don't remember having sleep paralyses then, but I bet they are wild when you're high like that. It was fun =)

Northeast U.S. I couldn't sleep at all, literally felt like I was up for 8 hours straight after midnight.

Nebraska, USA - neither myself or my wife slept well. I was up all night with uncontrolled thoughts about 2 recent movies i've seen. stayed home from work to try and catch up on my sleep.

Slept like shit, northeast US. Major nosebleed after breakfast.

im in north texas, ive felt the exactly this way the last 2 nights, I even had a nosebleed this morning,first one since childhood, now seeing this post and comments is a bit unsettiling to say the least.

According to my sleep diagram i had 5 deepsleep cycles and slept for 8 hours, which is perfectly fine.

Found this a bit earlier: http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread1010133/pg1&mem=

I live in the mountains of Georgia and slept like shit, woke up 4-5 times and had a nosebleed.

Also had wicked vivid nightmares. All military in nature as well. Two involved fighting UN attempting to take a town, two were taking out a DHS installation with a small team and the last one was defending the same as the first town from looters.

I slept like shit last night too with more wicked nightmares.

Canada here. Woke up at 4am last night...was very tired this morning. But I woke up to go to the bathroom. Which rarely occurs for me. But all is normal

Itt : people complaining about nosebleeds don't know how humidity works

yes... but yesterday was still yesterday. don't see how the calendar date would be relevant to a global phenomenon.

but I guess ill see how I sleep tonight

Gyroscopic compass bed! Now there's a kickstarter for you.

NYC here. Haven't slept yet, and I was tired all day. Can't get to sleep- and this never happens.
