The Heard
The clocks go back on the last Sunday of October every year, which theoretically means an extra hour in bed. But research shows that Brits experience sleep disruption for up to a week after the clocks change, thanks in part to an interrupted circadian rhythm.
New research shows how tiredness can impact our daily lives at home and at work. Over 8.5 million UK adults (16%) admit to starting an argument with a colleague or loved one when tired. The same number also admit to starting arguments with strangers in public. So, between the 27th October and 2nd November, it’s best to stay out of other peoples’ way.
Tiredness can also have long-term effects on our life - over 3 million UK adults have quit their jobs because of negative feelings caused by tiredness. Almost a fifth (20%) of 18–24-year-olds admit to calling in sick due to feeling “tangry” - anger caused by tiredness.
