Poor sleep after a breast cancer diagnosis

A diagnosis of breast cancer in 2019 left Sarah struggling to sleep due to worries about her health and the effects of treatment. Over the years these sleep problems steadily got worse, leaving Sarah feeling tired, anxious, depressed and unable to cope with daily life.

Understanding the science behind sleep

Sarah tried a number of ways to improve her sleep, including holistic remedies, practicing mindfulness and concentrating on her sleep hygiene. Nothing seemed to work for her, and when she discovered Sleepio through her GP, she was relieved to finally have access to a tool that helped her understand the science behind sleep. Sarah began to see improvements in her sleep after two weeks of using Sleepio.
