Working from home is bad for your sleep!

Why Working From Home is So Disruptive to Your Sleep Schedule

If you’ve been staying up later and hitting your snooze button more, you’re not alone. Here’s why.

A night of fitful tossing. A bedtime and wake time that fluctuate daily. A workday that begins sluggishly and ends later than you intended.

If this sounds familiar, your work-from-home routine (or lack thereof) may be the cause. “We might expect that working from home allows people to sleep better, but studies conducted prior to the COVID-19 pandemic suggest this is untrue,” says Jennifer Martin, professor of medicine at UCLA and sleep-expert adviser at Precision Nutrition.

“What I’m seeing is an increase in sleep disruption in getting to sleep and staying asleep related to the overall increased collective stress,” says Allison Siebern, an adjunct clinical assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Stanford Center for Sleep Sciences.

Many remote workers may abide by less conventional schedules—especially during the summer months and as a new level of pandemic fatigue sets in. And many of us grapple with feelings of preoccupation long after closing our laptops. It makes sense: Our brains feel unsettled since our living and workspaces are now combined.

Lowkey I believe it. I’ve been getting shyt sleep the last few months, waking up later but feeling more tired and groggy, even after sleeping until like 9. Usually don’t feel like I’ve really gotten into my day until 10-11am. Sometimes I’ll finish work then pop open my laptop to check it later in the evening.

Work and home kinda blend together, I don’t love working from home, but it still beats the hell out of commuting to an office everyday.
