There’s a lot of talk about sleep these days,
everything from the effects of summer heat on our sleep patterns to how
veterans sleep after coming home. Just recently there were reports that Michael
Jackson went 60 days without real sleep.

Sleep and its impact on our lives is one of the
hottest topics on PatientsLikeMe (in fact, there have been more than 8,000
posts on the night owl forum thread). It’s one reason why,
over the next several months, PatientsLikeMe is going to be taking a deeper
look at your sleep experiences and how they affect your overall health. So, we
want to know – Are you sleeping? Keep an eye out for conversations about sleep
in the forums, insomnia topics in the newsletter and research surveys that will
help uncover more about sleep (or lack thereof). We’ll take a look at
everything you’re sharing over the next few months and tell you more about what
we’re seeing (stay tuned!) There are a lot of things that can impact our sleep,
so let’s get the conversation going and start catching some more zzzzz’s.

To kick things off, we did a quick
poll to see how we, your PatientsLikeMe Team, are sleeping. We asked our entire
staff questions like: “How many hours do you sleep each night?” and “What have
you tried to help you fall asleep?” and “Would you say you have insomnia?” The
answers might surprise you. Check it out.
