Does anyone else with chronic illness find their symptoms to be 10x worse when they don’t get enough sleep?

@ThePOTSPostman Kind of. But also 10x worse when I get too much sleep.
@ThePOTSPostman Sleep is CRUCIAL. If I get under 5 hours or sleep broken up, I know that day is going to be extremely hard to function, expect flare ups and exasperation of symptoms. And yet I’m happy if I get 6 hours of sleep🥴 which is hard to accomplish🫣
@ThePOTSPostman And then some. Ironically, my sleep is horrible when I’ve overdone it so there’s a compounding effect.
@ThePOTSPostman Sleep, rest, nutrition, calming the system are foundational.
@ThePOTSPostman My sleep is so dysfunctional, I honestly don’t know.
