Anxiety becomes the cause of a bad sleep and a bad sleep causes anxiety. So this whole situation turns into a vicious circle from which it is difficult to get out.
According to a recent study from the University of California, individuals who sleep less and sleep poorly at night have a 30% higher level of anxiety compared to individuals who get a good night's sleep. To reach the above conclusion, the scientists considered the cases of 18 people. They meticulously analyzed each person's sleep hours and their quality.
In short, if you do not sleep properly, the chances of being affected by anxiety attacks are high.
But what should you do for a good night's sleep?
- Set a bedtime
- Do not use technological devices an hour before bedtime
- Do not drink caffeine after 4 o'clock in the afternoon
- Avoid using alcohol at night
- Keep the phone quiet and out of bed
The above steps will help you get out of the vicious circle we mentioned at the beginning of the article. You will sleep better and wake up calm, without anxiety and full of energy.
