He seemed really concerned about it. Is psychosis and sleep intimately entwined or something?

Sleep is healthy Madame! If you’re getting too much you’re depressed most likely, if you get too little you’re manic/psychosis. If you’re getting 8 to 12 roughly maybe less Even you’re probably more healthy
