Sleep / Insomnia Check-In
Sleep problems can affect mood, concentration, physical health, and the ability to cope with stress. This check-in looks at trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, waking too early, and how sleep is affecting daytime life.
About this assessment
This tool is designed for self-reflection and support navigation. It is not a diagnosis. Results should be interpreted in context, especially when symptoms are severe, persistent, or affecting daily life.

About the evidence: Project Semicolon custom sleep check-in informed by common insomnia symptom and impairment domains. It does not reproduce the Insomnia Severity Index, which requires permission for reuse.
Project Semicolon reviews assessment wording, scoring logic, safety routing, and source status separately from the directory experience. Custom check-ins are clearly distinguished from validated instruments.

Sleep FAQs
How much sleep should I get?
Sleep needs vary by age and person. The more useful question is whether you are getting enough sleep to function well and whether sleep feels reasonably restorative.
Can anxiety and depression affect sleep?
Yes. Sleep and mental health often affect each other in both directions.
Should I stay in bed longer when I cannot sleep?
Spending much more time in bed can sometimes reinforce insomnia. A sleep clinician can help tailor behavioral strategies.
When should I talk to a doctor?
Consider medical evaluation for persistent insomnia, severe daytime sleepiness, loud snoring or gasping, unusual nighttime behaviors, or symptoms that are worsening.
