Why Midlife Sleep Breaks, and What to Record
5 minute read
Sleep complaints in midlife are usually described as insomnia and left there. The useful detail is which part of the night is failing.
- Time you got into bed, and time you think you fell asleep
- Every waking you remember, and roughly when
- Whether heat, a racing mind, or the bathroom woke you
- What time you gave up in the morning
- How the following day went
Two weeks of this turns a vague complaint into a pattern with a shape.
