I think its a combination of reasons, the nap was fairly hard to fit in the afternoon, I often struggle to get to sleep and trying to get to sleep is harder twice in a day. With Christmas coming up I dont want to have to have a 90 minute nap on Christams day. Etc.

Although it didnt work for me I did learn quite alot, I will be much more open to using naps to help me sleep in the future, and I think I pushed my body closer to its sleeping limits, rather than sleeping 6 cycles a night, now hopefully Ill be on 3/4 with a 5 every now and again due to me going with practically no problems with less sleep.

I will continue to read updates as I still think the idea is great.

Thanks for everyones help.

Sad to hear that. I'm curious to see how much sleep you need if you return to a monophasic schedule; I find that even if I do it for a single day (personal commitments, such as the upcoming Christmas Day gathering) I need a longer period of sleep, but I can switch straight back to biphasic the following day.
