Hi There,   Sleep is… weird. We've spent years digging into sleep science, and we still find ourselves Googling questions that you'd never ask out loud, but secretly really want to know the answer to. Today, we're answering some of the internet's most searched (and strangest) questions about sleep.

Can you drive if you have narcolepsy? What even is sexsomnia, and how is it different from sleepwalking? Sleep disorders are far more complex than just being tired all the time. They're often undiagnosed, misunderstood, and incredibly common. One bizarre (and surprisingly common) category is parasomnias— the unusual behaviors that happen while you're falling asleep, sleeping, or waking up. From sleepwalking to sexsomnia, parasomnias are more than just odd; they're real medical conditions. We're breaking down what's real, what's treatable, and how to better understand your brain when it's off the clock. Explore Our Guide to Parasomnias

Do you actually grow an inch while you sleep? Why does coffee sometimes make you more tired? And no, you're not eating eight spiders a year (promise). The human body does some bizarre things at night—and not all of them make sense at first glance.   But there's solid science behind many of your biggest sleep questions, and we're here to break it down. The Science Behind Sleep Myths Are weighted blankets too hot to sleep under? Could your mattress actually contain fiberglass? And how many pillows should you actually sleep with? Your sleep setup has far more influence than you think.   Whether it's what's inside your mattress or the blanket on top of it, your sleep environment can seriously affect how well you rest, and how safe you feel doing it.
