Hey, thanks for the answer :)

Mine was moderate-to-severe sleep apnea. And you have defined the problem perfectly; I was a data analyst. Sat at a desk whole day and I needed to pay attention to every little unnecessary detail. I can see how working in a more dynamic environment can compensate the sleep problems!

Thank you again for your reply :)

Hey man, so sorry to hear your condition. I had a sleep disorder as well and the only thing we wished was 'I hope it is not brain related' (turns out it wasn't). People do not understand the effect of not sleeping well for a long time on a person, telling you to 'brush it off'.

So my questions: 1) Did you have trouble explaining the situation to your girlfriend/friends/some family members? Before you got 'used to it', of course. 2) Are you worried about work life? I had the disorder when I was finishing my school and starting to work, and I had to quit because not enough sleep - errors at work - I quit the job. I would have been fired anyway. Yours is a more severe disorder, how do you think it can affect your work life?

Thank you for doing this, and hope everything goes well for you!
