What is UARS? The Sleep Disorder Doctors Miss
A complete guide to Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome—what it is, why it's overlooked, and how to get diagnosed.
Rest Reclaimed
Real talk about UARS, trauma, nervous system regulation, and learning to feel safe in your body again.
I spent seven years being told I was fine. Sleep studies came back normal. Doctors said it was anxiety, depression, stress. Meanwhile, I was barely surviving—exhausted beyond words, anxious for no reason, watching my life shrink while everyone insisted nothing was wrong.
Turns out, something was wrong. It's called UARS—Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome. And once I finally got answers, everything started to make sense.
This is where I share what I've learned. The messy, real journey toward rest. Not "I'm cured, here's the secret"—but "I'm still in it, here's what's helping."
What You'll Find Here
Education
UARS explained in plain language. What it is, why doctors miss it, and why your "normal" sleep study might not tell the whole story.
Validation
You're not crazy. You're not lazy. Your symptoms are real. Sometimes you just need someone who gets it.
Real Progress
Not toxic positivity. Not overnight cures. Just honest updates on what's actually helping—and what isn't.
