the quality of your sleep and whether or not you get enough of it may say a lot about your personality. A new survey conducted by one poll for Life Aid found that americans who say they don't get enough sleep are more likely to be introverted, blame stress for keeping them up and would give up one whole hour of productivity if it meant they could sleep more. On the other hand, those who say they do get enough sleep at night were more likely to be extroverts, less likely to stay awake at night due to stress and would rather not give up an hour of productivity over sleep. People get an average of five hours of sleep a night and six and 10 feel like they can't remember the last time they felt truly well rested respondents for the life fades study admitted that political and pandemic related news have kept them up a lot in the past year, while personalities differ depending on sleep quality, one thing people seem to be on the same page about was that getting good sleep is very important and should be taken more seriously. Participants believe that the key to eating better, drinking more water and even being friendlier to strangers lies behind how good you sleep.
