According to a new study, 50% of American women have cheated in their dreams, betrayed their other half, and had a relationship with their lover.
The survey asked 2,000 Americans about their dreams and found that 50 percent of women had spring dreams with someone other than their partner. The survey also found that two-thirds of respondents were eager to take a good night's rest, while 63 percent blamed the COVID-19 news cycle as the reason they stayed up late.
The study found that the main factors influencing nightmares are relationship problems, followed by family concerns and health problems. Respondents' most common nightmares included being chased, falling, and being attacked. Other nightmares include partners leaving them, having to go back to high school, and being naked in public.
The poll, conducted by Onepoll on behalf of mattress consultants, showed that half of respondents said nightmares make it difficult for them to fall asleep, and another half said they had frequent nightmares.
"In today's climate, a good night's sleep is especially difficult to get." Ashley, Certified Sleep Science Coach at Mattress Consultants "It's important to remember how important our sleep is to our rest of our health and well-being, and if you prioritize your sleep health, you can feel its beneficial effects on other aspects of your life," Little said. ”
Respondents reported that they needed an average of 25 minutes to fall asleep, and then they only had 6 hours of sleep. Respondents were also asked to share the strangest dreams they had ever had, resulting in some interesting responses.
One interviewee described a dream in which they were chased by a giant frog, while another shared a dream they had in which they gave birth to a baked potato that no one seemed to notice was a starchy treat.
Even if they fall asleep, their struggles don't end, and they wake up in the middle of the night an average of 7 times a week. Respondents reported that they were woken up at least twice a week by picky children, their pets, noisy neighbors and noise on the street.
