Today has been 2.6 hours shorter than my body would natively expect it to be (without my early-dose melatonin regiment)... 😞

"Sleep could be a potential target for interventions to alleviate allergic and respiratory symptoms in preschoolers." My child's asthma basically disappeared after following their #Non24 cycle by free-running with sleep.
For anyone who missed it earlier: my latest interview on Sighted Non-24 is up on the blog. Grateful for the chance to share these important perspectives! #WorldSleepDay #Non24 totally-circadian.blogspot.com

If, like me, your #sleep is eratic and messed up, you may find the following interview scary. I sure did!

I suffer from a condition known as Non 24-Hour Sleep Wake Disorder, which from my experience is not something most people seem to have heard of before. So, I thought for the sake of spreading awareness I might do a thread explaining what exactly this disorder IS and how it works #n24 #non24 #non24hoursleepwakedisorder
Sleep specialists are not always accepting that #Non24 happens in sighted people. They've only heard of it happening in blind people (70% of blind people have Non24). So it's still difficult to get an accurate diagnosis. Thankfully, for the past 8 years I've seen changes.

Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder (Non-24) is real. For many totally blind people, the body's internal clock can't reset daily without light. This means the sleep cycle constantly shifts, leading to periods of severe insomnia and daytime sleepiness. It's not just "bad sleep hygiene", it's a chronic condition.

"Icy wind" often doesn't even begin to describe my feelings of social isolation and being stuck in "pre-adulthood life".

Cant find money freelancing anymore, cant find professional mental/life help to help me find+keep a job, lately I really just feel abandoned by everyone.
No irl friends since... school really. 😭

Often I wish I lived in some small town without cars and all this complicated technological/societal mess that's demanded of us.
