Takaichi wrote on social media on July 21 that she had managed to sleep for five hours for the first time in some time. She added that she spent the afternoon ironing clothes and completing sewing repairs, allowing her to secure enough clothing for official duties through the end of the current Diet session. Repeating a phrase associated with her leadership, she wrote that she would continue to "work, work, work, work and work." Since taking office in October 2025, Takaichi has repeatedly referred to her lack of sleep. During the current Diet session, she has said she usually sleeps only briefly and at one point had gone almost without sleep while dealing with budget deliberations.
