To help us understand more about sleep, we invited women to track their bedtime routines over a five-day period before presenting these diaries to sleep expert Dr Nerina Ramlakhan for analysis.
“I sleep for 8 hours every night but still feel tired – what can I do?” A sleep expert answers your questions
I make porridge with berries and cinnamon for breakfast, which ties me over until lunch when I have sushi followed by some biscuits and chocolate. I feel sluggish in the afternoon and develop a migraine. I have decided to make some changes. The exercise definitely made me feel better and I feel a lot brighter this morning because of my early wake-up – hopefully I can keep it up.
When I head to bed I have a terrible night’s sleep. My partner comes to bed really late and snores for most of the night, so I’m woken up over 10 times. I then start to overheat from stressing out about my sleep . I know I need to make better food choices and start moving away from my computer but I am so tired from last night that I just work through because I don’t know any different.
“I really want to help you as you’re clearly struggling and want to make changes but can’t break the negative cycle you’re in. Your condition seems to give you a lot of feedback which you listen to, but you don’t seem able to make the necessary changes.
