Sleep experts Girardin Jean-Louis and Rebecca Robbins debunk 13 more myths about sleep. They talk about the effects of hitting snooze, how to deal with jet lag, and the importance of sleeping positions in getting a good night’s sleep. They also explain the dangers of sleep apnea - in fact, it can be life-threatening if left untreated.
Jean-Louis is a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the University of Miami. His research primarily focuses on sleep and circadian health. He was previously a professor of population health and psychiatry at NYU Langone Health. You can learn more about his past work here: med.nyu.edu/faculty/girardin-...
Robbins is an instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School and an associate scientist at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Her work involves designing behavioral interventions to improve sleep and circadian health. You can learn more about her work here: www.rebecca-robbins.com/

Funny joke. You are also the reason why doctors hate their job they learn to tell important info and yet you immaturely reject for "comfort"/freedom, when your comfort gets less and less because of lack of sleep then you will regret not fixing your sleep schedule earlier now of course if you ain't a student or don't need to wake up early then sure stay up later and wake up later to get enough sleep

When I wake up I don’t feel like I just slept usually like you said, I also wake up either to an alarm or whatever reason before I get up and I go back to sleep and that’s the only time I can or ever will dream; after I wake up and then fall asleep again. At my old job I use to have to drive peoples cars and one time I almost fell asleep at the wheel on the highway in someone’s car. I couldn’t believe it afterwards cause I’m the kind of person who would do anything to not mess up someone else’s belongings such as someone’s car. I’m always extra careful.

I really wish this idea of night owls being a real thing was more common knowledge and widely accepted. As a night owl, my ideal wake up time is 8am and then get ready slowly and start work around 10:30-11, finish work around 6-7pm, have dinner, and then do some hobbies until midnight/1ish. But with full time 9-5 work, I have to be up before 7, and have eaten breakfast and be out of the house by 8 to start work at 9. It really doens't work for me and I genuinely believe it's lead to me being depressed and unable to relax because I always feel like whenever I get up late that I'm wasting time.

Thank you for debunking the myth about night owls. For years, I have been patronised for sleeping and waking up late. This has made feel bad about myself and I ended up internalising the notion that I simply have bad habits or a bad lifestyle, which inside, I truly did not believe about myself. This society IS in favour of early birds and it will always be a continuous struggle for night owls to navigate and compromise their schedules and plans. In an ideal world, our society should function to serve both kinds!

@@Couchlover47 But they are. A victim of a screwed up work culture. One of millions actually. Many workplaces enforce unreasonable working hours for nigh owls to handle. Like, why do you need me to be at work at 8:00am even though I'm not seeing any clients, I'm not opening the shop or taking any phone calls at that time anyway? If anything, night owls are much less productive in the morning, so you're actually sabotaging your company if you expect them to be up early for no good reason. I'm a night owl myself and when I worked for a company like that, I'd always be slow, groggy and unpleasant in the morning, and I'd only start waking up after 11:00am or so. Thankfully I left that company and found a job where I can come in at 10:30, eat breakfast, catch up on emails and start work at 11:00. My productivity increased through the roof. My boss is clearly happy, because I'm constantly getting praise and bonuses, I'm happy, the customers are happy, everyone's happy. And all it took was shifting my work schedule to my natural waking hours. But a lot, and I mean a LOT of employers still don't understand that. They think "If I'm up, you're up" and won't hear an argument to the contrary.

@@B3RyL Not to mention school. I'm a night owl as well, and when I was in school I wouldn't be tired until around 12pm. My school would start at 7:30, but I had to get up around 5:30am to have enough time to shower, eat, get fully ready, and walk 20 minutes to school. I need about 8-10 hours before I feel well rested, so most often I would fall in the habit of snoozing the alarm a lot, rushing to get ready just so I could be on time, and I would sleep in class a lot. It really killed my productivity, what little I had with my ADHD Inattentive, which I was led to believe is fake and a sign of laziness.(definitely not fake). It was super stressful and demotivating, but it really wasn't my fault. I really wasn't remotely tired until midnight. In fact, it's 4am right now as I'm typing this. And now, after all those years of being forced to work against my natural schedule, I'm tired all the time and have issues feeling well rested even when I get the correct amount of sleep. It's very annoying that we have to conform to an early bird society

As a long sleeper myself, I found it interesting that every time they mentioned "here's the average, but it you need this amount that's ok too", they always went down in hours (aka short sleepers), but never up (aka long sleepers). Not that it's all that important, I just find it to be much more of a detriment in society than being a night owl/lark, you know? Like, I feel many of the negatives of being a night owl (which I also am) can largely be smoothed over in modern society, but regularly needing 10-12 hours of sleep a night is still seen, not only as "lazy", but also as being a sloth in a hyper speed world.

@nigarhasanli9129 2 жыл бұрын

@harpurr53 Жыл бұрын

Agreed. People with chronic illnesses and/or physical disabilities, like myself, also need more sleep simply because our brain and/or our body is working more / using more energy due to the illness and/or disability. Additionally, though -- I do recommend fellow long sleepers get assessed for sleep apnea, as the need for extra sleep despite sleeping more than 7 hours could have a more physical cause. & it's better to be safe!

@Traumglanz Жыл бұрын

I am not sure if 12 hours is really normal if you are healthy, fit and have no other conditions that your body is working on fixing. 9? Sure, that seems to considered still in the range. But over that? I would guess that more often than not there is a different reason than biorhythm for that. Sickness, Fitness issues, to high cortisol levels, depression, etc plenty of things that might stress your body more and make it want more sleep.

I would play the brook sound on it. Then it broke and I started using KZfaq videos. For the past few years I’ve been playing this one video of an open window in New York at night. I like it for multiple reasons. One, it drowns out my tinnitus. Two, it hides the bumps in the night so they don’t scare me. Three, I find it calming hearing that there are other people nearby when I’m trying to sleep so if anyone tried to murder me other people would hear. Four, I often can’t sleep because of my anxious thoughts so I like to imagine I’m this random person in New York and I imagine what my room looks like. It also just seems to soothe me.

If you're a side sleeper, absolutely put something between your legs if it feels more comfortable. You can end up with poor sleep and chronic hip problems if you don't. I'm slender, I don't have thunder thighs, so I need support there. If I can't have it, then I have to sleep on my back, or do the 3/4 stomach/side combination, which isn't great for neck and back.

As a teen I was a night person, but as my circadian rhythm "grew out" of it (teens just naturally get tired later) I became a morning person. Not entirely, I still find myself the most mentally productive towards the end of the day. The reality is, the majority of people are "morning/day people" due to well, biology, meaning the majority of society will accommodate that. Having more businesses open at night would force more people into night shifts. There's already quite a few jobs out there that are overnight, shift work jobs for those types of people.

I grew up with a condition called ‘Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome’ so have gone through many sleep management practices. I remember once being subscribed some very strong melatonin supplements. It really messed with my mental alacrity the following day and was definitely too high of a dose. Less can be more. Don’t over do it. You want the minimum that can work for you and focus on practicing good ‘sleep hygiene’.

@rachelcookie321 Жыл бұрын

It shocks me how unregulated melatonin is in America. I live in New Zealand and take melatonin every night and I need a prescription from the doctor so I can get it. One time we bought a huge tub of melatonin from America that my dad’s work mate brought over for me since it was cheaper. We stopped doing that because the doses were too high and we couldn’t find one low enough for my prescription. They can get such huge doses so easily!

I am sorry but, as a night owl, who literally goes to sleep around 1 to 2am, and used to feel more focused at night, feel the great need of changing that. I have done some days of sleeping and waking up early and let me tell you, those have been the best days for me, in energy and productivity. I remember one time I slept three days in a row at 8-9pm and after the third day, even my memory got better. I could remember easily what I did those three days, to the slightest detail, I mean I could remember quite well, compare to when I slept late. I am talking about in summertime when I could sleep the 8 hours no matter what time I went to sleep. Nights are meant to sleep, naturally, our bodies need darkness when tire, and that is at night and we need daylight and sunlight to do things. I mean, the sun is energy, literally. Flowers get it from it, and we get some too. I feel you because I still go to sleep late, but recently I feel my body is begging me to change that. I will listen and act accordingly. Take care of yourself, and I will encourage you to implement what is naturally better, getting ready to sleep and sleeping when is dark outside and waking up when the sun goes up. Tech and human inventions had damaged our sleeping schedules. 200 hundred years ago, not sleeping at night, was not a big problem as it is today. Society was adjusted to what was natural, but now we have disrupted what is natural.

For any suffering from insomnia: I was an insomniac from my late teenage years through age 39. I'd say any two out of three days I was sleep-deprived. Around age 39, I started noticing a pressure in my chest...not painful exactly, just pressure. It came and went, and eventually I picked up a pattern. It was most prevalent after I ate, but it definitely wasn't heartburn or anything else that felt digestion related. I then further noticed it was especially after I ate sugary breads (cakes, pastries, etc.). So, I gave up food with high amounts of sugar in them for a week, just to see if the pressure stopped. It did. But what was really interesting is that toward the end of that week, I was falling asleep within 30 minutes of going to bed, and staying asleep. In the last 4 years, I've eaten maybe 10 servings of high-sugar foods. Zero nights of insomnia. It has absolutely been worth cutting out sugar to never again feel the despair of sleeplessness. I figure I'm not the only one out there who had this issue. EDIT: It's worth mentioning that I still drink black coffee and sugar-free sodas. Caffeine was definitely not causing my insomnia.

This is very helpful and well presented. I had no idea you were supposed to take melatonin 3-4 hrs before bed. I have been taking it directly at bedtime and it feels like it doesn’t help. I have a variety of sleep issues. Sleep onset insomnia, sleep maintenance insomnia, delayed sleep phase disorder (basically programmed to be a night person in a daytime person’s world- so I feel like I have permanent jet lag) and I had obstructive sleep apnea, but since I’ve started losing weight, that’s cleared up a lot (which is good, because there was one night I was constantly waking up choking and I was terrified of literally dying in my sleep). I also get sleep paralysis. It had been years since the last time I dealt with it, but recently, it happened like three times in one week- the kind where you’re trying to wake up and you feel like you’re going through the motions of getting out of bed but your body isn’t actually moving, or trying desperately to wake up but you feel trapped like the blanket suddenly weighs a ton, or your arms and legs are like Thor’s hammer. Or you think you’ve successfully moved and woken up, only to realize you’re stuck in another dream where you’re trying to wake up. If you get stuck in a position where its hard to breathe, its really scary. I try to sleep on my side with pillows supporting me in a specific way- I started doing that to help with the apnea, but then I realized that if I get “stuck” asleep, its a more comfortable position to be in cause I don’t feel as pinned. Anyway… Watching this after a night with zero sleep, and a day with no nap where my body has decided that even though every fiber of my being is exhausted, my brain didn’t want to sleep. Its probably just trying to get back on track, and 1AM is better than 6 AM I guess… I freaking hate my relationship with sleep.

@KM-ej4mb Жыл бұрын

I also have issues with sleep paralysis, and it mostly shows up during the transition between summer and fall (for some reason, I'm not sure why). What usually helps me is turning on a noise machine, usually wave sounds to help me regulate my breathing and stay asleep. I feel like it lulls my brain to a complete rest instead of it waking up before my body does. Maybe that will help you!

@gnarthdarkanen7464 2 жыл бұрын

As a lucid dreamer, I can assure you that dreams are weird and wonderful things... I can also assure you that the human mind does NOT really process time in any consistent manner... Your alarm goes off while you're dreaming... Your brain CAN take that sound and incorporate it anywhere it decides "to make sense of it"... AND even that does NOT have to make any kind of logical sense to you or me. Remember he said "Dreams are emotionally substantive, so you'll tend to remember things like a loved one dying horribly"??? Well, emotions don't always make logical sense either... Falling asleep in front of a TV playing has taught me, that there's no legitimate sense of time in my mind... I can wake up to the very conversation I thought I was having in my dream HOURS AGO... AND then sit there wondering what the HELL was going on in the "Idiot Box" when I was chasing some horrible monster between then and waking up... Time doesn't mean much of anything, so trying to track the TV programming or trying to make any sense of dream incorporation from the outside world influences is best faced as a playful pass time unless you LIKE driving yourself batty. SO even that lucid dreaming is being able to "realize the dream is a dream" and take agency rather than wake up, it doesn't mean you entirely control all aspects of the dream. Think the episode of HouseMD when House gets shot at the beginning of the show, because he's wrestling through a differential diagnosis (like usual) but {spoiler alert} it's only at the end of the show that he realizes he's dreaming and can force himself to wake up and demand a katamine treatment to help the pain in his leg... It's not quite that out of whack, because (as you get "better skilled") you really CAN do some crazy things in dreams that you'd ordinarily never even think to try... BUT most of the time, in the dream, even though you know it's YOUR dream, your brain has already created and inherently "bought" the reality as-is... Whatever physics you've got in there, you still have to conform... You may or may not be able to fly unaided, and it's not universal (for instance)... Of course, when I can fly (like Superman) in a dream, it's an awful lot of fun! (among other things... tongue firmly planted in cheek)... ;o)

I like all the info represented here. As a sleep tech I'd like to add that snoring should be a little more focused on. Snoring doesn't always you mean you have sleep apnea but it's part and parcel of the same issue; instead of a complete cessation of breathing (sleep apnea) a person is only partially blocked, which results in the sound produced trying to pull air through sticky, upper airway tissues. I've seen planty of people who only snore but that snoring interrupts their sleep every 20 seconds to 2 minutes and I've seen people with severe apnea who don't breathe for a solid 2 minutes at a time (all night, every 2 minutes) but surprisingly don't have related arousals (they've gotten extremely use to their breathing pattern). So sometimes snoring can be almost as bad as having the actual definition of sleep apnea. Basically, if a person snores on a regular basis, I would not look for other signs, I think that might be sign enough to have a sleep study.

Pretty much my entire life, I’ve had trouble with sleep. One issue I’ve had is a deviated septum but I’ve actually just had this corrected. Unfortunately my nose is still kinda blocked, making it extra difficult to sleep. Maybe I’m getting sick, idk. It’s also always taken me at least an hour to sleep. Sometimes more. The last few days, it’s been close to two, accompanied by waking up before I should. I finally managed to get with a neurologist due to the onset of seizures over the last couple of years and one thing he suggested was a sleep study. Hopefully I can get that done soon. I’d really like to get on top of this finally and start having good nights of sleep

@@Narusasu98 the thing is that your body needs natural light and vitamin D. Our bodies are designed to be awake during the day, sleeping through the whole day can actually mess up your health. No one thinks your life is fucked up if you work night shift (that I know of), people know someone has to do it but people are still just concerned about your health. I know someone has to work night shift but I’m still worried about their health. Everyone I’ve talked to who works nights has said it affected their health. Until recently, I was sleeping during the day and awake during the night and it definitely affected me, my body was craving sunlight.

Oh, man I have so much to ask about 1) 20 mins naps are impossible for me because usually it takes me more than 30 mins to fall into a half-asleep drugged-like state (I keep "resurfacing" with all progress gone) and then 30 more to get into actual sleep mode. Is this something to be concerned about? 2) I remember vividly 90% of my dreams with exact details about clothes, architecture, character personality, touch, smell and *insanely* detailed plots. People think I am making it up but I can't possibly make up a 4 page Google doc story with themes, an entire cast etc. on the spot. Those dreams feel like a movie, a series with multiple seasons, an entire franchise and sometimes years out of somebody's life. It gets so disorienting, yet people say they envy me 3) Is it possible for me to have a stable sleep schedule when sometimes for work I need to get up at 4:30am, sometimes 5:30, 6:30 and sometimes I can sleep in as long as I want to? Without naps I am unable to function and mine are usually more than 1 and a 1/2 hours.

I have no issues with jet lag because i can sleep at any time of the day as long as i am relaxed and not anxious. So for instance, if i were to travel east i would just go to bed right away and i would be able to sleep just fine and wake up just fine. If i were to go west, i would sleep for 2-3 hours on arrival (or during the flight perhaps) and thusly adjust my schedule that way. Not getting enough sleep is of course harder than getting too much of it. But a quick nap will usually settle any off schedules right away. And pulling all nighters is not a problem really, as long as you stay active you don't get tired. It's when you stop being active that sleepiness sets in.

Talk about dreaming always confuses me because people seem to describe it as if some kind of experience that you would confuse with waking life during the dream, but I've literally never had anything like that and the whole concept sounds alien to me. Even when I do have experiences that I would call dreams, they're something I'd never in a million years confuse with real life and they're *super* rare, like at most a couple times a year. The vast majority of nights I just fall asleep and wake up, and have no recollection of anything going on in between; it's not forgetting dreams, I don't at any point remember having dreamt at all.

@TheGooglyminotaur 2 жыл бұрын

It’s about not falling into sleep cycles. 20 minutes will allow a re-boot of cognition without falling in deeper, which makes you feel like crap and can make it hard to go to sleep at night. If your schedule is to sleep through a cycle or two, go for it. Sleep fragmentation bothers most people, but if it’s optimal for you, ok.

I’m so confused by their logic on that. They just want you to go through the jet lag for a few days. But you can easily fix it within a day if you just stay up during the day when you want to sleep and then go to sleep at night when you’re really tired. I feel like being jet lagged for multiple days would be worse for your health than just staying up longer for one day. No one wants to spend the first half of their holiday just recovering from jet lag.

I'm an absolute "Night owl". I find that when I'm on vacation for example, my rythm very quickly changes to going to bed between 1 and 2 am and waking up naturally around 9 am. Even though I probably could go to work later than I do now (the typical 8am start), this would mean I would have to work later. As this doesn't fit to the typical schedule, I would have to rush directly to a dinner with friends, would have no chance of getting to stores outside of the weekend (stores in Bavaria Germany close at 8pm at the latest and aren't open Sundays...) etc So "society forces me" to ignore my natural rythm. To go to bed before I am actually tired enough to sleep, and to wake up, before I am well rested 😔 It's been getting better, the more I pay attention to getting to bed earlier, doing yoga before bed and not snoozing in the morning, but its still not ideal...
