Good to know
- How well you sleep matters as well as how long. Waking often or feeling tired after a full night can be signs of poor sleep.
- Talk to a doctor if you have trouble sleeping most nights for several weeks, snore loudly or stop breathing in your sleep, or are very sleepy during the day.
