@doctor.bing: Sleeping less than seven hours regularly is not just about feeling tired. It changes how your brain cleans itself, protects memory, and controls emotion. This is one of the most overlooked causes of long term cognitive decline that I see in clinic. #brainhealth #sleepmatters #neurology #EducatorAward #learnontiktokcontest

I've been a night owl since the day i entered the world. It drove my mother crazy having an infant who slept all day , but was awake all night. Everything changed when I read the book Hidden Laws of Sleep, and then I literally changed my sleeping schedule overnight, I celebrate that day as my second birthday, because since then I have improved in every area of my life

Haven’t slept 7+ hours on a regular basis in 40 years. No doctor across 5 states have been able to fix it. If I’m lucky 5 hours is a good night of sleep.

What if you can’t sleep that long? Like I do not set an alarm. Whatever time I I go to sleep I wake up at about 5-6 hours later no matter what.

What if you sleep 7 hours, but you do it in shifts? For example, you sleep for 4 hours, wake for 3, then sleep for another 3 hours?

let's say you were an insomniac for 40 years less than 4 hours a night and you finally started sleeping and have been sleeping steadily 8 hours a night... can your brain recover from the damage that was done?
