Not only will they grow old,
It may also show old age.
Life is too short and the later you sleep, it seems that it has become the norm for many people.
Why don’t you go to bed early? Why don’t you sleep a little more?
Every time I ask this, many people may say: I can’t bear to sleep.
Day after day, the more late I sleep, the less I sleep. Finally, in a tossing and turning, sleepless night suddenly realized that I had insomnia.
So, Dr. Clove’s question arises: Do you really suffer from insomnia? Why are more and more people suffering from insomnia now? What should I do if I lose sleep?
Come on, look down.
Do you really have insomnia?
The bad news is that there are indeed many people who are experiencing insomnia and have experienced insomnia.
The good news is that very few insomniacs need to take medicine to improve their sleep.
How do you know if you have insomnia? Generally speaking, insomnia is divided into two types:
Common one: insufficient sleep time
It is difficult to fall asleep, for example, after lying in bed for 30 minutes, I still haven’t fallen asleep.
It is always easy to wake up after falling asleep, and the time of waking up each time exceeds 5 minutes, which eventually leads to the total sleep time being less than the ideal sleep time.
How long is the ideal sleep time?
This is really not strictly stipulated, if you wake up the next day and feel full of blood and resurrection! Even if you reach your ideal sleep time…
One that is easily overlooked: poor sleep quality
Some people have no problem falling asleep and have enough sleep time, but when they wake up, they feel dissatisfied.
Attention is not focused, head is groggy, temper is growing, the whole person seems to have been stolen energy bar at night, work and study also unconsciously with negative emotions.
Anyone can be affected by insomnia, and women are more prone to insomnia than men.
Then the question arises, why do more and more people suffer from insomnia?
Why do you lose sleep?
People who sleep well may be similar, but people who suffer from insomnia have their own reasons.
Generally speaking, insomnia is mainly due to the inability of the body’s nervous system to maintain normal circadian rhythm, and there are many factors affecting circadian rhythm…
Step 1 Light
If it is really dark after the sun goes down, there is nothing to do with touching the black at night.
But now?
The sun is gone, there are lights, the lights are off, and there are cell phones. It seems that there will always be a reason not to sleep.
Step 2 Work long hours
Too many people will work overtime and travel frequently, and this social rhythm itself will also affect our internal physiological rhythm.
3. Being under stress and anxiety
The Internet has brought more competition to this era while pulling into the distance between each other.
So many people feel the pressure of survival, anxiety seems to have become a normal state, but there is no place to relieve it.
4. Drugs, Drinks
Some psychotropic drugs and coffee and strong tea drunk before going to bed will also lead to difficulty in falling asleep.
All these factors will affect the body’s neuroendocrine, disturb the circadian rhythm, and ultimately affect the time and quality of sleep.
Insomnia, what should you do?
It is better for the doer to undo what he has done.
For most people, the main cause of insomnia lies in irregular and unhealthy work and lifestyle.
1. Adjust the time taken up by work
Working overtime for a long time or at night will make our nervous system nervous and difficult to sleep.
Instead of taking up more of your time to do things that seem to never be finished, stop and ask yourself: Too much work? Is it a little inefficient?
Then, whether it is to improve efficiency or adjust work content, try to change this normal state and find a new balance.
It is true that we cannot completely separate work and life, but if sleep has been obviously affected, it is not good for work and life.
2. Let go of your cell phone and computer,
Don’t be willing to play with your mobile phone or computer before going to bed, but you won’t sleep.
3. It’s okay to be afraid of the dark. Remember to choose the right night light.
Light before and during sleep will seriously affect sleep and sleep quality.
A few people will have to turn on the light when sleeping because they are afraid of the dark. In this case, they can choose a dim yellow light or a red light to avoid a blue light source.
Step 4 Don’t take a long nap
A nap at noon, such as 10-20 minutes, is helpful to restore energy, but if you sleep too long, such as more than half an hour, it will disturb your sleep rhythm, wake up groggy, need a long time to recover, and it will be difficult to sleep at night.
5. Reduce travel (if possible)
[Gold nest and silver nest are not as good as their dog kennel], most people feel more secure in familiar environment and sleep quality is more guaranteed.
6. Don’t stay up all night
If you should sleep or not, there will be endless troubles.
For young people, staying up late occasionally may have passed, but it has become a habit to endure, causing more than one or two injuries to the body.
Step 7 Ask for help from a doctor
There are also people who suffer from insomnia because of high mental pressure and physical illness.
If you are like this, don’t hold on alone, talk to a doctor, maybe a luxurious night’s sleep will belong to you.
On the other hand, don’t always be reluctant to sleep. Dr. Clove always thinks, when will we sleep when we are alive?
