Suffered From Sleep Disorder And Later Wrote a Book

As you may know, a journalist's work schedule is not usually fixed, one might have morning and late night shifts, and depending on the demand of the work, it could be both. Diane Macedo also had the same problem, and due to this, she battled sleep deprivation for many years of her life as a journalist. 

Earlier this year, the lady stated in an interview that she would accept extra assignments wherever her colleague and boss asked her for. This led her to deprive herself of sleep as she revealed for years, her nap time was from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

But her tight work schedule was not the reason for her sleep problem. She said that she had been experiencing sleep issues ever since she was a baby. She didn't take naps during the day and didn't take many hours of sleep at night too. 

Growing up, Diane slept lesser than her family and friends, and the surprising thing was she never experienced problems. Despite that, she realized it was not a good thing when her husband compelled her to get a remedy for the sleep disorder.
