How the shortfall dey grow with time at your nightly rate
Dem scale di bars reach di 30-day value. Dem dey grow in straight proportion because di nightly shortfall no change.
Formula
Nightly shortfall = max(target hours per night − actual average hours, 0). Sleep debt = nightly shortfall × days. If actual sleep reach or pass di target, di shortfall na zero and no debt dey gather for dis calculation.
Example wey show the calculation
Target na 8 hours, actual average na 6.5 hours, for 14 days: nightly shortfall = 8 − 6.5 = 1.5 hours. Debt = 1.5 × 14 = 21 hours — na 10.5 hours per week, or 2.63 nights of 8-hour sleep. Use Reset example above to get dis same result.
Where e fit work and limits

Extra sleep no simply dey repay missing hours hour for hour, and dis page no claim say e dey. Dis no be diagnosis, treatment plan or clinical category, and e no dey assess any sleep condition.
