The Misery of Poor Sleep
Anyone who has struggled with insomnia knows how debilitating it can be. Sleep deprivation not only leaves you feeling miserable, but it can also significantly affect your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. According to the NHS UK, adults typically need 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night to function optimally. However, for those suffering from insomnia, getting quality sleep can feel nearly impossible.
Common symptoms of insomnia include:
-
- Difficulty falling asleep at night
- Regularly waking up throughout the night and struggling to fall back asleep
- Waking up early in the morning and not being able to return to sleep
- Feeling tired, sluggish, or unrefreshed in the morning
- Difficulty concentrating, irritability, and lethargy throughout the day.
The Impact of Insomnia on Your Life
The effects of insomnia extend beyond just feeling tired. A lack of adequate sleep can significantly impact your mood, concentration, motivation, happiness, and even relationships. Research, including studies from Harvard Health Publishing, suggests that insomnia can also affect your weight due to hormone imbalances that regulate hunger and appetite.
While there are many potential causes of sleep disturbances, common factors include shift work, hormonal changes, environmental factors (such as excessive light or noise), substance use (like alcohol, caffeine, or nicotine), and jet lag. However, anxiety, stress, and low mood are often at the root of insomnia, making hypnotherapy for sleep a highly effective treatment option.
