[Post 1659] Doomscrolling & Late Workouts: Why Are These Young People So Tired? | Restless - Part 2/2

Summary

Tommy, Nicole and Nasrul are young, ambitious and already exhausted. Tommy pushes himself to stand out before he even enters the workforce, but finds himself too drained to enjoy his weekends. Nicole juggles a full-time job, a Master’s degree, exercise and a busy social life, while years of too little sleep are beginning to affect her memory. Nasrul embraces a “work hard, play hard” lifestyle, balancing work, exercise and late nights — but fatigue is taking a toll on his mood and health. Guided by digital medicine expert Professor Dean Ho, the three discover what their own health data reveals about the effects of their routines. They experiment with small changes to when they sleep, eat and exercise, while confronting habits that are harder to break. Can they pursue the lives they want without sacrificing their health and energy along the way?
