@ElizabethVSweet Hello Dr. Sweet, I am currently doing a paper involving the gender stereotypes that involve boy's and girl's toys. I was wondering if there is a way I could view your entire dissertation, as I am not able to see the full document.
@MHChat Knowing what works for you to get to sleep better is always the first step! Melatonin is great for those who have difficulty falling asleep and setting a regular sleep schedule helps your body anticipate when you are likely to sleep.

@MHChat A6: I think there is definitely a direct relationship between sleep and our health and wellbeing. Things such as depression and anxiety can disrupt sleep patterns and either causes too much or too little sleep.

@MHChat Lack of sleep can cause a lack of energy which is important for sports and operating throughout the day. A lack of sleep can additionally cause one to be irritable and unfocused.

@MHChat A4: If the sleep quality was poor the previous night we are more likely to be lethargic and sleepy throughout the next day. This may lead to wanting to take a nap during the day or over caffeinating, ruining the sleep process for the next night. #mhchat
@MHChat Sure! Circadian Rhythm operates as a biological clock within our bodies and it is influenced by external factors such as daylight. CR can influence sleep-wake cycle, hormone release, eating habits, and digestion. Irregular CR's can lead to various chronic health issues. #mhchat
@MHChat What helps me fall asleep is the smell of lavender, the sound of a fan, and a dark room. Without a fan, I often have difficulty falling asleep. #mhchat
@MHChat A3: Factors that can influence the quality of sleep are where you are sleeping, if you have access to a bed (is it comfortable), are there noises in your environment to keep you awake, and temperature of the room you are trying to sleep in. #mhchat
@porndaughter Social workers must push for policies that decriminalize sex work and continue to educate and inform on the topic. We can also search and support forms of ethical porn to help de-stigmatize porn consumption and support the companies who pay their performers a living wage #macrosw
