SLEEP PROBLEMS

We all know that sleep is essential for our mental and physical health. Sleep problems can feel absolutely debilitating. Whether it’s difficulty with falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early, it can lead to a cascade of negative consequences. We can then become stuck in a cycle of fearing not being able to sleep.


A lack of sleep can have many psychological effects:


Increased anxiety and stress


  • Difficulty in regulating emotions

  • A vicious cycle of anticipating another restless night, making it harder to sleep


Depression and mood swings


  • An effect on mood-regulating neurotransmitters like serotonin - this causes irritability, sadness and emotional instability


Cognitive impairment and poor concentration


  • Impairment in attention, memory, and problem-solving skills

  • Difficulty with decision-making, forgetfulness, and reduced performance at work or in daily tasks


Increased irritability and emotional reactivity


  • Small irritations or frustrations become overwhelming

  • Effects on relationships, work performance and overall happiness


Impaired judgment


  • Hasty decisions

  • Impulsive behaviours


Low energy


  • Physical and mental fatigue throughout the day

  • Reduced motivation and drive for daily activities
