How this works

Weekly sleep debt = (target − actual) × 7 nights. A running deficit of several hours is linked to impaired concentration and mood.

Frequently asked questions

Can I "catch up" on sleep debt?

Some recovery is possible with extra sleep on subsequent nights, but chronic debt is best addressed by consistently improving nightly sleep rather than occasional catch-up sleeping.
