That back and forth thing you're describing sounds interesting, although I'm not sure I really understand what you mean by that...
It is hard to describe, someone else might be able to describe better.

How are you @eafw and everyone.
Hi Rosie, it was going quite well until about the middle of March when I picked up some virus that had been going round (cough/cold thing). Unusual for me to get something, but it knocked my routine out for a few weeks. Took a while to readjust again.

So I was already living on summer time a few days before the actual change. The change went fine this time, hardly felt anything!
Doing it slowly can make a big difference rather than all at once

I'm surprised anyone with this disease can maintain a sleeping rhythm where they would notice much effects from one hour difference in time..
It depends on the person. I find if I don't control my light exposure particularly, my body clock will get completely unsettled - which will make me feel a lot worse. And an hours change is a big deal to those of us who are sensitive to it.
