The primary goal of this observational study is to investigate sleep quality in patients living with HIV+. The secondary objective is to measure the influence of sleep quality on indicators of mental health (anxiety, depression and stress) and quality of life.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Measuring the effects of poor sleep quality on mental and physical health in HIV+ patients.
• Monitor the sleep pattern in the HIV+ population.

Participants will fill out an online cross-sectional survey.

• sociodemographic and clinical data related to HIV infection,
• sleep quality,
• mental health,
• quality of life.

We expect the majority of the HIV patient population to be male, between the ages of 40 and 65 and with a high school diploma. We expect a virologically suppressed HIV population with good adherence to antiretroviral therapy. We expect poor sleep quality and low quality of life and high symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress.
