HOW Is My Relationship Affected by Lack of Sleep? w Shane Dawson & Ryland Adams / Kati Morton

This series is an educational project sponsored by Google.
Sleep is the only time our brain gets a chance to clean itself and file away any memories made that day. The amount of fluid in our brain increases by over 60% and helps our brain clean any waste that may be sitting in it and it even uses this time to support learning and memory as well as regulate mood. Not to mention that because sleep is so calm with its slow deep breaths, and relaxed muscles, taking the time to let our body rest for many hours a night is beneficial.
I chatted with Shane & Ryland about their sleep habits and how they manage them within their relationship. Hopefully some of the tips I offer them are helpful to you as well. xox

    I set my goal bedtime for 10:30 PM but sometimes realistically I don't get to bed till 11-12. I feel tired when I go to bed 12+ though. I try to allow a full 8 hours, but sometimes it doesn't happen. I'm very much like Ryland in the fact I like to get up and get my day started and my husband doesn't. He's very much a night owl and I'm not necessarily an Early bird but I feel panicked if I don't wake up no later than 8 AM because I feel more productive during the hour of 7-8. I'm also 27 and a student on top of trying to start my own creative business lol

    I noticed that once I removed the tv from my bedroom a few years ago, that I’m sleeping a lot better and falling asleep a lot faster. Training your body to sleep when you get into bed is one of the best things you can do for your overall health. Also, working out before bed helps me drain my energy and meditation helps me clear my mind.

    Just a thought: Even though Shane is very successful at his work, his work behavior doesn't seem particularly healthy to me. There are a lot of people working for hours and hours without taking a break that have underlying emotional issues. Because society rewards people who have a strong work ethic, I think, ultimately, those people who don't rest when they need to but overwork are often overlooked, because they are seen as successful and "well-functioning" people.

    I’m just going to throw out my sleep tip that I’ve been using since I was a kid. I’ve always struggled with “turning off” my brain and having intrusive negative thoughts. To combat these thoughts I will make up a story. The story doesn’t have to make sense or be plausible. It does normally have a “main character” and a sequence of events. This occupies my brain and prevents negative thoughts until I end up asleep. If you’d like to try, here’s a prompt I once gave my daughter: an octopus is best friends with a butterfly, what does a day together look like?

    I wonder if the sleep issues are also tied into having ADHD. I have extreme anxiety when "the time to sleep" arrives. I know I find excuses not to sleep. I believe Shane also has ADHD. Meds can also be an issue. He jokes about adderall on his chanel that will keep you up depending on if you're on extended release or the regular 4 hour pill. A consistent medication schedule will help. Taking the meds at the same time everyday. So hard for someone with ADHD. A book helps me, a none electronical book, interesting enough to read but not so much to keep me up to read and hyper focus all night.

    Hi, I'm sorry to hear that ! You're not alone, a girl I knew had the exact same situation. She had 2 solutions, she made a playlist of music that would calm her down and falls asleep listening to it. Altho she bought a very comfy bed, with soft silk blanket and pillow. This way your skin will feel good and safe. Altho something I have ridden about Trauma is to close your eyes, think about all the bad feelings you felt and move your eyes quickly from right to left. This is what the body does to clean your mind when he's asleep, it's like a way to manually do it ! It's alright to be exhausted after a trauma, even tho you feel like you'll never sleep, I promise you can get better and happy again !

    I find journaling helps me sleep better. Its an opportunity to get any important things I might have missed, or just thought of at bed time, on a to do list, then get all the noise out of my head on to the page. It also helps me to see more clearly what is going on emotionally with me and to resolve this within myself and to get clear on any actions I might need to take & good ways to go about them. If I could get myself to journal regularly I think it would help my sleep pattern massively.

    Love when you do videos with Shane & Ryland. You all have great cheme for videos I feel. I was having an issue with too much sleep. Sleeping 10-12 hours and still not feeling rested. Turns out after some tests I has extreme apena. Now with a CPAP machine I'm sleeping 7-8 hrs and the clarity and and ability to be refreshed is amazing!

    things that have helped me get more regular sleep/overcome insomnia: regular work schedule, taking meds at night (routine), taking a shower at night (routine), practicing good self talk to ward off anxiety (keeps anxiety dreams away), and making sure i have good pillows, etc. often actually setting a hard deadline to get offline helps as well.

    Everything Shane said about sleep... same, same, same. Me and my boyfriend are the same in that sense. 😶 Plus, Going to sleep and generally turning off the light and just lying in bed in the dark, it just makes me uneasy and I'm having a hard time relaxing and falling asleep. Hearing that I'm not the only one helps, it makes me feel a little less guilty for being this way, which is the hardest thing about not being able to sleep properly... the guilt of not functioning like a "normal" human being.

    Sometimes, I get so anxious thinking about what I'm going to have to do the next day, that I can't sleep. I don't like sleeping the day away, I like to wakeup (on weekends/breaks) at 8 or 9 o'clock, I don't like to stay up at night because of past experiences. I have a bedtime of 9 to 10 o'clock, because of school. I really enjoyed this video, it was very informational as well as entertaining. You're great!! 😁

    Shane, my sleep patterns are very similar. I grew up in a traumatic household and night time was my time to be away from it. There were no expectations or interaction with others so I used that time for me and to just get away from the world. The weight of tomorrow was too much sometimes so I stayed up super late because those hours of the night felt safe and a time for creative things like writing because I’m similar and more creative at night. I also have partially diagnosed adhd so that doesn’t help lol (in the dx process now)

    I had a bed which I used as a couch a lot, I would read, be on my laptop or phone and even paint or make things on my bed during the day. I also did homework on my bed because it was the comfiest way (at least it felt like it but I was actually ruining my back so yeah...) an then I got the oportunity to take my brothers bed because he was getting a new one. His bed is a bunk bed with originaly two beds but we took the lower one out. I also got a smaller desk for doing my homework which noch stands under my bed and I have like a small room for studying there and I still have my old desk which is bigger to do my paintings/crafts /being on my computer and whatnot. Seperating the areas for sleeping/resting, studying and leisure activities really helped me in sleeping better but also in studying more effectively as my phone is always staying out of my "study room" Btw. I don't have a huge room, but the bunk bed added a lot of space which made this possible and I can really recommend it even though it might sound weird to have a bunk bed when you are already an adult.

    I'm going to definitely be doing the homework, especially because finals week is next week! I think finding something happy and relaxing, preferably a KZread video is best! I'm busy with school work all day, then tend to feel like helping everyone struggling at night as an empath because I don't have a lot of time to do that during the day! I think I'll start having a time limit like between 9-10 help others feel better, then relax watching/doing something happy, shut off my phone and sleep! Thanks so much for this video, and Best of luck to Shane and Ryland! Also, Shane you got this, I believe in you! Figuring out the reason or reasons why you're not sleeping is the first important step! I'm sooooo proud of you for working so hard on figuring out ways to solve the problem. Also it will be rewarding for you in so many ways to be able to sleep better, and even if it's a really strange, having a bedtime is a great step in the right direction too! 😊😊😊😀😀 💜💜💜❤❤❤💓💓💓💓

I have never found something so damn relatable. Thank you so much for sharing your vulnerability with everyone, Shane. It’s hard for people to understand the triggers surrounding sleep. Sending so much love. You’re incredible. 💜

    I feel like outside of Shanes trauma a large part of these issues both with hyper focus and sleep are from ADHD. There's some academic research that resulted in saying that the ADHD brain tends to benefit better from a 2am-10am sleeping pattern rather than the neurotypical something pm to 6-8am wake-up. I completely understand where he's coming from RE getting in the zone to that extent, I have it sometimes with University papers I enjoy or on the bi-yearly time I play Sims I can achieve that focus for a day or two continuously which is insane. Definitely a good idea to try and shift or cut the focus or 'release' as you were calling it if it interferes that much with his life, but it's hard for someone with ADHD to cut that as we know it truly is really productive time and can feel like the same standard won't be met if we come back to it later. Notes are definitely helpful though. Great video!

    Shane said the bedroom was dark & scary. Maybe he could sleep with a dim lamp on or something. Or have different things in the bedroom, or maybe less stuff to help relax. Also you guys need alarms to start/stop working. & get andrew to agree to the time to stop working also.

    I completely relate to this. My fiancé thinks I don't sleep at night because I don't want to, but it's because I just can't. I don't have sleep related trauma, I just have always been in physical pain and sleep causes more pain for me, so sleeping is not something I look forward to doing. It's a real struggle and it's caused quite a few arguments for us, but we do deal with it. I try to regulate my sleep pattern, and it can work for a few days, but I always end up going back to sleep at like 5am and falling back into the same old patterns because regulating my sleep habits doesn't stop the pain

    I feel like if u work from home it would be important to get changed into some sort of different outfit, and then get into ur pjs again to go to sleep. Cause is important for ur brain to know that they are different states. So I kinda see Shane living in a robe all the time being a barrier to a proper sleep schedule... Also I find the no phone in bed thing v important. I recently started snoozing my alarm and checking socials in the morning in bed and it made things lots harder that it used to be to get up
