Advanced Sleep Phase Syndrome (ASPS): Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention

Diagnosis

Advanced Sleep Phase Syndrome (ASPS) diagnosis depends on the presence of the relevant symptoms.
Familial Advanced Sleep Phase Syndrome (FASPS) is caused by a range of possible genetic mutations that can be passed from parents to children.  Genetic Testing can determine if the relevant gene mutations are present in a person's DNA.

Complications / Issues

As with any sleep disorder, the sufferer may experience a reduction in the amount of quality sleep that they receive, frustration as a result of the lack of sleep at night (when everyone else in the house is sleeping), and sleepiness, tiredness and other issues resulting from the lack of sleep during the day.

Treatment

Advanced Sleep Phase Syndrome (ASPS) can be treated pharmacologically, with evening bright lights, or behaviorally, with chronotherapy or free-running sleep.

Prevention

The best way to prevent the onset of the symptoms and complications of ASPS, is to seek medical advice and treatment as soon as possible after you notice the symptoms.

Random Sleeping Tip
Another very important aspect that people should take care for their sleeping time is that they should not wear clothes that are tight because while turning in the bed those clothes would prevent and restrict movement and this can result in an untimely awakening and the individual might not be able to sleep at all after that. So it is really important that you wear loose outfits so that you are able to have a good night sleep.
