How a Sleep Disorder Can Mean Much More for Your Mental Health

Not getting a good night’s sleep can leave you feeling moody or irritable the next day. But what happens if you experience sleep problems for several nights in a row? Being constantly fatigued may not be the only change you notice –– you may also start to feel an impact on your mental health.

Lack of sleep can have a serious impact on mental health

Sleep issues may be a sign of a psychotic disorder, such as bipolar disorder. Mental health issues, however, can also lead to or be made worse by poor sleep patterns. Some of the more common mental health disorders that have been linked to sleep include:
  • Bipolar disorder. Sometimes referred to as manic depression, this indicates a person’s tendency to oscillate from one mood (often normal) to another (often erratic). These mood changes can be made worse by a lack of sleep, which can last for days.
  • Depression. Those who suffer from depression report feeling overwhelming sadness, as well as a lack of interest in favorite activities or hobbies, lower energy levels and a sense of hopelessness. Stressful life changes, an inability to sleep or a family history may contribute to depression, which can also make you feel constantly tired.
  • Anxiety. Generalized anxiety disorder is defined as feelings of stress or worry about day-to-day life. It can disrupt your daily lifestyle, and can result in headaches, nausea, hot flashes and difficulty falling asleep. In turn, a lack of sleep can also worsen anxiety symptoms.
