Thank you - This is not talked about enough. The problem is SO REAL - and so underestimated. Most people suffering from sleep disorders are not addressing it, and it is only now slowly becoming something you can talk about in eg. a work environment

Totally 💯 I speak both as a therapist and someone who lives with chronic illness due to burnout ❤️

The problem is there's no time for naps anymore, we're too busy. That means we get only one chance a per day to get it right and it's stressful when it doesn't go right! Things that help me: early morning exercise particularly outside, only one caffeinated drink before 10am, stopping eating 3 hours before bed, carbs with or just after last meal like honey, kiwi and bananas, dim lights and screens at night, dark bedroom, fan for air flow and white noise and sleeping separately from your partner if they are a noisy sleeper which mine is! We're not only talking snoring but teeth grinding, talking AND singing in her sleep!

“War against sleep.” Of course….stay up all night, and make Netflix rich, stay up all night, get sick and make pharma rich. These are 2 good reasons to make a bigger effort to get more sleep. Great interview👍🏻

Yeah for sure it's getting harder to not only get the required or optimal amount of sleep or when it's possible to he able to get quality sleep for that recommended timeframe. Much harder...

Even if Japan's average sleep rate is 6 hours 22 minutes.
Japan has the 4 highest life expectancy so there doing something very right.

If your struggling to sleep just pretend to sleep then you’ll drift off.

I get up gif a smoke and toilet after a few hours then go online snd an up for an hour or more before I go back to bed, the war on sleep is winning because I’m addicted to this not so smart phone.

[thefisherman]

I rarely sleep for anything more than 6 hours. The more I get than that I feel worse. Overrated sleep ...each person is different.

[andromedastudious-jwmm]

In my country it's 2:34 am 😕 Still I'm suffering due to not fall asleep 🥺

[cette.cacophonie]

This is not about Netflix, it's not just about first world problems 🙄

[orientalshorthaircats]

for 9 minutes he tells that we don't sleep enough, blaming netflix ceo. well you know what, 'horrifying reasons' headline and 9 minute ramble about the obvious is way worse than what netflix is doing. at least they describe their work honestly and deliver better content
