It turns out that 10 percent of adults are not getting enough sleep in the past month. This was stated by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The study showed that a large amount of people were sleeping less than 6 hours. The CDC also said that almost 70 million citizens are subject to sleep disorders and sleep loss, which adds a risk to obesity, depression, and addictive behavior such as smoking and drinking.

The reasons for why people are sleeping less are hard to pin point, but it is likely to due to the higher work loads imposed on families as well as higher family demands. There has also been an increase in television viewing and internet usage which may decrease sleep time as well.
