How the check works
It asks about the five things that most often keep couples awake: snoring, different temperatures, the blanket, tossing and turning, and different bedtimes. Then it asks about your bed and how tired you are. You get up to four fixes, smallest first: work on the snoring, two duvets on one bed (the Scandinavian sleep method), more room or two mattresses, and blocking light and sound. Sleeping in separate rooms is the last step, not the first.
If you report loud snoring with pauses, choking or gasping, the check tells you to see a doctor first, because that can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea. The check is general information, not medical advice. The survey figures come from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine’s 2024 Sleep Prioritization Survey of 2,006 US adults.
