Texans wake up an average of 2.48 times each night, with the most common cause being waking up to use the restroom.

65% of respondents woke up to use the restroom, with thirst being the second most common cause.

Room temperature is another factor affecting sleep, with 22% of respondents citing it as a reason for waking up.

Texans are more likely to have bad dreams and worries about the next day's to-do list, leading to more frequent nighttime awakenings.

Despite the findings, many Texans continue to struggle with sleep, with no clear solution in sight.
