Great article! Thanks!

Probably true. Since my early teens I get about 4 or 5 hours and have never needed more most of the time.
Being up those extra 4 or 5 hours on your own gives you more time to think about time wasted not with people you love

Or they could both be affected by something else in common.

My entire life has been others saying to me "you talk too much." Now that we are in a world of social media I find it is everybody else who cannot put down their phones. They carry them everywhere, smile down at them as their fingers send messages, and we even find 2 people inside a room wanting to text each other. Certainly you are not sleeping if this is what motivates you. I have anxiety and sleep problems too but certainly nothing like what I am saying here. I suspect you can be very lonely if all of your attention is given to a phone rather than to another person. I get texts in the middle of the night and the phone stays on the desk as I ignore them until later. It does wake me up though. People tell me I did not answer their text and I say it is because I am not glued to my phone.

That's a bit of an eye opener. Ha! no pun intended lol. It actually explains a lot and makes perfect sense to me.

Well that explains a lot!

As someone who often has sleep issues stemming from my PTSD, I found the article quite interesting. Thanks for sharingl
