My stress levels are low all day and then gets high when I sleep - what does that mean?

So I consider myself to have a pretty high stress job. As an IT manager things are always falling apart around me and our department always gets the blame.

Similarly when I get home of an evening I have 2 children under 3 to get to bed before I can relax.

On the Gamin app however my stress levels are blue all day and then go yellow / orange as I fall asleep. What does this even mean?!?!

Stress measurement is just bogus. It's a gimmick, added to garmin watches so garmin can say they have more features than the competition. Whether these features are useful or work at all is not really garmins concern.

Listen to your body. You don't need a watch to tell you you have stress or not.

I think the watch clearly helped him to understand something that he had not understood before. The impact of alcohol on his body.
