Over 70% of women feel their sleep is impacting their mental health, new survey reveals

A new survey published today reveals that 70% of women report that their sleep is impacting their mental health, while a significant 60% of women also feel their sleep negatively impacts their day-to-day activities.

The survey, conducted by Aeroflow Sleep, sheds further light on the apparent gender sleep gap, which is a term to describe the overall sleep quality and duration discrepancy between men and women.

Good quality sleep underpins our overall health and wellbeing, including our mental health. Research widely indicates that without adequate rest, our risk of depression and anxiety increases. What’s more, sleep deprivation can also worsen the symptoms of certain sleep disorders, including sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome, which in turn diminish seep quality.

But why are women in particular struggling to get the sleep they require? To help us better understand these new findings, we speak to Dr. Carleara Weiss, Aeroflow’s Sleep Science Advisor.

Key takeaways from survey

  • 95% of women feel tired during the day
  • More than 70% believe their sleep is impacting their mental health either sometimes or every day
  • Less than half of doctors have provided women with sleep health resources and supplies
  • 60% of women rated their sleep quality as poor
