What is Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder (DSPD)? · 3:09pm Oct 2nd, 2019
Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder is a disorder of the circadian rhythm where individuals face long term disturbances in sleep patterns due to changes in their natural clock. Usually, this consists of an individual’s sleeping time shifted forward by two hours or more. An example is someone who goes to bed at 3 and wakes up at 11 AM. This sleep schedule is incompatible with the regular 9-5 routine most workplaces have and isn’t generally socially acceptable.
