Kristen Stewart says she suffers from a sleep disorder which constantly keeps her up at night. To combat her condition, the actress often gets out of bed and plays drums to relax.
The Café Society actress has looked into acupuncture to remedy the situation, as the disorder often interferes with her daily activities.
She told Elle magazine: “I’m a high frequency person. I wake up here [she points above her head] and then as the day progresses, most people systematically produce less adrenaline so they are ready to sleep but I have this fight or flight thing – I just won’t come down. It doesn’t debilitate me. If I’m not sleeping, I’m fine. It doesn’t worry me. I have no problem with odd hours.”
The 26-year-old star has been forced to soundproof her walls when playing the drums, as she is usually the only one awake due to her unusual sleep pattern.
“I have one room that’s soundproof so I can play drums really loud,” she revealed.
Stewart also enjoys using Tinder to pass the time, though mostly by flicking through friends’ profiles.
The actress, who is currently dating girlfriend Alicia Cargile, explained: “I’m always like, ‘Wait, let me see!’ It’s so fun, I’ve looked over shoulders and been like, ‘You should say this…’ And I have through swiping sessions but I’ll mess them up sometimes and I’ll swipe the wrong direction.”
The Twilight beauty isn’t the only one suffering from sleep deprivation. Singer Ellie Goulding was recently diagnosed with exhaustion and insomnia due to a busy touring schedule which often kept her unable to sleep.
