The shortfall between what you need and what you got. We total your weekly shortfall vs your selected nightly need.

Is this medical advice?

No. It’s entertainment + general info for adults. For disorders (insomnia, apnea), consult a clinician.

Can I catch up on weekends?

Some catch-up helps, but consistency wins long term.

When should I worry?

If daytime sleepiness affects safety/health or you suspect a disorder, talk to a clinician.

Where should I start?

Guide, Methodology & References

How We Estimate Sleep Debt

You choose a nightly target (e.g., 8h). For each of the last 7 nights we compute shortfall = max(0, target − actual), then sum across the week.

We also show a rough “nights to catch up” by spreading the shortfall across future nights with ~30 extra minutes per night.

Limits & Context
  • Individual sleep need varies.
  • Quality, timing, and consistency matter.
  • Short naps can help some people; others feel groggy.
  • For concerns or persistent problems, see a clinician.
Healthy-Habit Ideas (Non-medical)

  3. Daytime: daylight exposure, movement, caffeine timing.
  4. Routine: simple cues (shower, book, stretch).
