The Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) Society is working with The Sleep Charity to develop a new resource on sleep and PDA. It is based on these results and the lived experience of PDA individuals and sleep practitioners, who took part in their sleep survey. 85% of respondents reported that sleep was an issue for them or their child. Of the few who said sleep itself wasn’t difficult, 70% said that everything to do with going to bed was a demand. Although as always, for a few it’s not an issue at all and one person mentioned that sleep was great because it was a good way to escape from demands!
