Are you a night owl or a lark? Either way, you need the right amount of sleep to feel good and function well.  With young children, busy lives and stressful jobs, there are times in all our lives when we have trouble sleeping. When it starts to have a negative impact on your waking life though, you may find yourself with a sleep problem.

Sleep deprivation isn’t always obvious; when you’ve been surviving on five hours a night for several weeks, yawning all day can start to feel normal. There is one test that can help you identify sleep deprivation: do you fall asleep within five minutes? Nodding off very rapidly can be a sign that you need to catch up on your sleep.
