Hi I'm Michelle from Brisbane, Australia. I am #MoreThanIH. I am also a sleep health advocate, researcher, speaker & mum to 2 amazing young adults (& 3 cute fur babies). I enjoy listening to music and learning to paint with water colours. What is IH? > bit.ly/IHFacts
Idiopathic Hypersomnia is a chronic neurological sleep/wake disorder that often doesn’t respond well to current treatments. Many people continue to struggle with debilitating symptoms. People with IH deserve better understanding, more effective treatments, and improved outcomes.
Despite having extraordinary amounts of good quality sleep people with IH are in a constant state of sleepiness. But IH is much more than that. IH can cause a range of debilitating symptoms including cognitive dysfunction (brain fog) Learn more: hypersomnolenceaustralia.org.au/single-post/id…
One of the worst things someone with #IdiopathicHypersomnia (IH) can hear is "I'm tired too". IH is a lot more than just feeling 'tired'. Learn more > hypersomnolenceaustralia.org.au/what-is-idiopa… IH FACTSEET > bit.ly/IHFacts #LivingwithIH #IdiopathicHypersomnia
"Being judgmental of us doesn’t help our situation; in fact it only makes it worse. We feel bad enough about what we can’t achieve and what we miss out on." Read More: hypersomnolenceaustralia.org.au/single-post/20… #IdiopathicHypersomnia #LivingwithIH
Two of the often debilitating symptoms of IH include: 📍 Cognitive Dysfunction. 📍 Automatic Behavior. These symptoms can affect work, relationships, and safety and are often misunderstood or dismissed. What is #IdiopathicHypersomnia? bit.ly/IHFacts
Imagine spending as much as 50 of your 75 years asleep and the remaining 25 years fighting to wake up and struggling to stay awake! For many people with Idiopathic Hypersomnia this is their reality. What is #IdiopathicHypersomnia? > hypersomnolenceaustralia.org.au/what-is-idiopa… #LivingwithIH
We’re taking the Idiopathic Hypersomnia Awareness Week @IHAWeek to the US – again! 💜 From 4–14 June, we will be in Seattle, Washington for two major events: 🟣The Hypersomnia Foundation’s Beyond Sleepy Conference 🔵The APSS's annual SLEEP conference #BeyondSleepy #SLEEP2025
When I said this back in 2014, I had no idea how many people around the world felt the same way... it is deeply frustrating that, even now, there’s still no medication that effectively treats this distressing & debilitating aspect of IH." - Michelle Chadwick, creator of @IHAWeek
Did you know we have Idiopathic Hypersomnia awareness posters in 14 languages! Find them on he IH Awareness Week webpage: bit.ly/3TQYF0K Your language missing? Can you help us translate? Reach out to us at [email protected] #IdiopathicHypersomnia #IHAwareness
We asked people with IH to describe it in one word & this is what they said. Exhausting, isolating, debilitating & misunderstood say it all. IH isn’t just being tired. It’s a serious, life-altering neurological disorder. What is IDIOPATHIC HYPERSOMNIA? bit.ly/IHFacts
