Sleep-wake rhythm disorder is a condition that affects an individual's sleep cycle, resulting in disruptions in periods of wakefulness and sleep. This disorder may be characterized by excessive sleepiness during the day, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep at night, or poor sleep quality that may affect the individual's ability to function normally during the day.
This disorder is often related to a mismatch between the individual's internal clock, or circadian rhythm, and the constraints and demands of their environment. For example, night work, jet lag, irregular work schedules, advanced age, or certain illnesses can all disrupt the sleep-wake rhythm.
To manage this disorder, lifestyle adjustments may be necessary. This may include maintaining a regular sleep schedule, avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bed, engaging in regular physical activity, and creating a supportive sleep environment. Proper support and comfort are essential for good sleep, which underscores the importance of choosing the right bedding.
