In a recent study published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, researchers used a large, binational cohort (total n = 4,731,778) to investigate the short- and long-term associations between SARS-CoV-2 infections and subsequent adverse neuropsychiatric outcomes. They used exposure-driven propensity score matching to compare their samples’ outcomes against the general population and individuals with a non-SARS-CoV-2 respiratory infection.

Study findings revealed that COVID-19 survivors were at significantly heightened risk of developing cognitive deficits, insomnia, encephalitis, and at least four other neuropsychiatric sequelae. Specific conditions included Guillain-Barré syndrome (aHR, 4.63), cognitive deficit (aHR, 2.67), insomnia (aHR, 2.40), anxiety disorder (aHR, 2.23), encephalitis (aHR, 2.15), ischaemic stroke (aHR, 2.00), mood disorder (aHR, 1.93), and nerve/nerve root/plexus disorder (aHR, 1.47). Encouragingly, vaccination was observed to attenuate the neuropsychiatric effects of the infection

Shit! Something clicked just now. I've been having trouble sleeping for the better part of a year and thinking back it lines up with an infection. I've tried everything from quitting coffee to banned screens during an evening routine to working out at different times to tire myself out. Nothing helped.

Maybe this is the problem.

Have you seen a sleep doctor? Ive never had COVID and started having trouble sleeping a year ago. TL;DR I have sleep apnea at 34 years old, have a CPAP now.

[–] nehal3m@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

I haven't, no. I absolutely should, especially given that the problem might be clinical instead of psychological.

What do you do for lighting in the evening? Morning?

[–] nehal3m@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I take my dogs out for a walk in the early sun, and at night I like warm LED lighting, just one or two sources.

Overhead (from ceiling) or lamps/more or less "eye level"?

Even if they're warm they might be too bright, especially if they're overhead. You might want to look into Hues, you can so red or amber or truly warm colors at adjustible brightness and automatically have them set to dimmer at the right time

Personal suggestion if you do Hues is set to pure red at around 8/9pm and to a dimmer level

What are we using these days to get full access? Y'all are an amusing bunch, AND this looks like an important paper.
