    The time changing twice a year causes enough stress that heart attacks spike 25% on the Mondays following the change.

    Even my dogs hate it.

      I know there’s data about this but I still can’t quite understand it. How is the time change any different from getting a little busier than usual one night and missing your bedtime by an hour? I can’t see how a single hour could possibly cause such drastic health effects.

        Especially when people often travel to other time zones or sleep in on weekends…

        I suspect the real issue is modern work culture leaves people with so little free time the chronic sleep deficit can’t handle the time change and a work day…
