A somnologist explained why insomnia is considered a sign of depressive disorder
Sleep problems can be a sign of mental health issues. For example, insomnia can indicate depressive disorder.
Therefore, if such a symptom begins to bother you, you cannot ignore it, so as not to let the situation get worse.
Also, if the patient falls asleep easily but wakes up at night, this may indicate breathing problems. Most often, such people have pronounced daytime sleepiness.
If a person can fall asleep peacefully in any place and under any circumstances, then this also indicates that his sleep is inadequate.
If you can’t fall asleep in the evenings, you should do some special preparation.
You should avoid physical activity in the evening and also eliminate tonic drinks. You should not drink alcohol.
It is important to take into account that although alcohol helps you fall asleep, it disrupts the structure of sleep, which leads to a lack of energy in the morning.
Somnologist Maxim Novikov spoke about this, RIA Novosti reports.
As the doctor emphasized, it is important to air out the room beforehand and ensure complete darkness. You should also avoid gadgets and books before going to bed.
