How Sleep Affects Mental Health

Insomnia is a problem that affects people all around the world. According to estimations, it is thought to impact around 33% of the world’s population. Even persons who do not have chronic insomnia frequently have sleep issues. 

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a third of adults in the United States get less than the recommended amount of sleep each night. As a result, it’s critical to comprehend the influence of a lack of sleep on one’s health, especially mental health and well-being.

Sleep and Mental Health: What Does the Research Say?

It’s no secret that getting enough sleep is essential for optimal physical and mental health. In the short term, sleep deprivation might make you irritated and weary, but it can also have major long-term health repercussions. Sleep deprivation has been related to a range of negative health outcomes, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and depression.

According to research, the link between sleep and mental health is complicated. While sleep has long been recognized as a symptom of many psychiatric disorders, newer theories imply that sleep can also play a causative role in the onset and maintenance of certain mental health issues.

To put it another way, sleep issues can lead to changes in mental health, but mental health issues can exacerbate sleep issues. Sleep deprivation has been linked to the beginning of various psychological disorders, albeit the reasons for this remain unknown to experts. Because of this symbiotic relationship between sleep patterns and mental health, it’s critical to consult your doctor if you’re having trouble falling or staying asleep.

The good news is that while sleep issues are frequently cited as modifiable risk factors for various illnesses, figuring out how to increase sleep quality and quantity might help alleviate the symptoms of many mental illnesses. This isn’t to say that getting more sleep is a panacea or a quick remedy, but it can be an important aspect of a well-rounded therapy approach.

Psychological treatments have also been found to be effective in the treatment of various sleep problems. For example, one study indicated that internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) effectively treated insomnia symptoms.
