    From all the videos of sleep desorders I've watch, this is the 1st one that actually tells me to quit from a device right away.

    As im watching this i am skimping on sleep. I hope i can sleep better tomorrow. I do this body scan meditation and tense feet then relax and legs all the way up to my neck. Navy people do it to fall asleep in 3 minutes. I sleep 10 hrs sometimes tho

    Great; now that I know how detrimental sleep deprivation is to my health, what can I do to mitigate this issue?

    This was years before. Now it's about how to improve the quality of sleep, not how to get by with bare minumum of it..

    Те, кто меньше спит, прибавляют в весе и имеют проблемы со здоровьем. Те, кто спит по восемь часов в день или больше, теряют вес и становятся здоровее. Я использую для этого переводчика.

    Who ‘chooses’ insufficient sleep? You are preaching to the choir. What would have been of much greater interest would have been a talk on HOW to get adequate sleep. We mostly know all of the detrimental effect of too little sleep, but the medical ‘profession’ have little to offer when it comes to insomnia, other than to refer patients to so called sleep specialists who are doing nothing more than hawking C-PAP machines - Sure, there are people that benefit from these machines, but it would help if we understood or recognized the real motive of doctors referrals to ‘sleep clinics’.
