Their implication is that it never goes away. I'm inclined to take their word for it.

- brainfog 12y agoAs someone who's been diagnosed with hypersomnia after several doctor's visits and sleep studies: that's correct. The fog very rarely goes away. There's the occasional good day that comes once every few weeks/months to remind you of just how bad things are, but otherwise it's just constant fog. Similarly to depression, things like a good diet, regular exercise, a regular sleep schedule, a bright light as an alarm clock all help improve things somewhat. Ritalin also helps if your heart can handle it.
- underwater 12y agoI wasn't trying to suggest that regular sleep deprivation is as bad as what the article describes. The language and scare quotes made it sound like they were explaining "sleep fog" as a new concept.
