Daylight Saving Time disrupts sleep and productivity for weeks
Two in five Americans will experience “Daylight Saving Scaries” when preparing to change the clocks in November. Commissioned by Avocado Green Mattress and conducted by Talker Research, the survey of 2,000 Americans revealed that 40% feel a sense of dread when preparing to “fall back,” a feeling that lasts much longer than just the day or two surrounding the time change. Results revealed this sense of dread sets in about 11 days prior to the changing of clocks — starting around Oct. 23 this year. And it doesn’t end until about 13 days after the change, which will be Nov. 16.
