Another day, another morning I woke up at 2:30 am and couldn't fall back asleep.

Okay, I started to doze off right around 5, had some weird semi-lucid dreams, and woke up again at 6.

But still.

This routine has gotten stale.

So many people I know are also struggling with some version of insomnia or disrupted sleep. I bit the bullet and made a doctor's appointment, and when I described the issue, the receptionist said, "Me too," and we talked about waking up at 2 or 3 am lying awake, exhausted, and unable to go back to sleep. Friends and coworkers are reporting the same.

Purely anecdotal, but it makes me wonder if there's been a rise in sleep disorders in recent years. We have been subject to incredible stresses nonstop. I wonder if there have been any studies on this.

Two sleeps used to be the norm. Needing 8 hours in one hit is only a recent phenomenon 😴 #insomnia #sleep #sleepdisorders https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-16964783
