How the number is built

Sleep debt here is (usual hours minus hours slept) times the number of nights. If you slept more than usual, the debt for that entry is zero. Use it to see the size of a short week, then decide whether the next step is an earlier bedtime or a schedule change.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does sleeping in cancel the debt?
A longer night helps, but the calculator only subtracts the hours you type in. It does not model how the body repays sleep.
What number should I use for usual sleep?
Use a typical night from the last month, not a single good weekend. Most adults land between 7 and 9 hours.
