This is what happens when you do a 360 on the human spirit, the ramifications and consequences are far reaching.
Homosexual men are significantly more likely to have trouble falling asleep, require medication to overcome insomnia or wake feeling unrested compared to straight or bisexual males, a US study found.
Lesbians are more at risk of struggling to fall or stay asleep, needing anti-insomnia drugs to help them nod off and feeling they need more shut eye in the morning, the research adds.
Previous findings reveal gay or bisexual people are more likely to smoke and suffer severe psychological stress, both of which disturb sleep.
How the research was carried out
Researchers from the National Center for Health Statistics in Atlanta analyzed 46,909 men and 56,080 women who took part in the National Health Interview Survey between 2013 and 2015.
The study's participants were asked how many hour sleeps they get on average in a 24-hour period.
This was then compared to the National Sleep Foundation's recommendations of seven-to-nine hours for adults aged between 18 and 64 years old, and seven-to-eight hours for those 65 and over.
They were also asked if they had trouble falling or staying asleep, had used insomnia medication or woken feeling unrested at least four times in the past week.
Their sexual orientation was also noted.
