When you spend the night tossing and turning, you know how you're going to feel the next day - out of sorts, tired and grumpy! You just don't feel like yourself.
Research shows that a lack of sleep can lead to irritability at work, with employees sending rudely-toned emails, making derogatory remarks to colleagues and ignoring requests for meetings.
You may also be more likely to make impulsive decisions and feel more anxious. Not sleeping enough can also cause you to lose your sense of humour. You may also lose interest in sex.
But not getting enough sleep does far more than make you feel out of sorts. A lack of sleep has a real effect on both mental and physical health. It's when you're asleep that your body's chemical balance is restored, and your brain creates new thought connections, helping to retain memories.
Signs that you may be deprived of sleep include:
Taking stimulants, such as caffeine drinks, to beat tiredness can make matters worse. They make it harder to fall asleep the following night, leading to insomnia.
Bach Flowers Mix 87 can help break this cycle. It supports you to relax, worry less about others and feel more confident, so you can sleep soundly and awake refreshed and ready to face your day.
Sleep deprivation is linked with various health problems, from lowered immunity to weight gain.
Chronic insomnia disrupts the central nervous system, so your body does not send or process information effectively. As a result, the brain is exhausted, and you will find it harder to concentrate and learn new things.
The signals that your brain sends to your body may also be disrupted, so your coordination may be poorer, and you will be more at risk of accidents.
You may experience microsleep episodes, falling asleep for a few seconds without realising. These episodes can be hazardous when operating machinery or driving.
Your mental and emotional state may also be negatively affected, and you may experience mood swings. Sleep deprivation may also impact your decision-making - this has been used as a form of torture and can even trigger hallucinations.
Other psychological risks include increased anxiety, impulsive behaviour, depression, paranoia and suicidal thoughts.
Your immune system builds protective substances such as cytokines and antibodies while sleeping. So when you aren't sleeping enough, your immune system becomes less efficient at fending off invaders that cause illnesses. In addition, some cytokines also help you sleep better, boosting your immune system while you slumber.
In the long term, a lack of sleep also increases the risk of chronic illnesses such as heart disease and diabetes.
There is a two-way relationship between sleep and your respiratory system. Sleep apnea is a breathing disorder that interrupts your sleep and reduces its quality.
And sleep deprivation caused by this constant waking leaves you more open to respiratory illnesses such as flu and colds.
A lack of sleep also increases the likelihood of becoming obese. Two hormones, leptin and ghrelin, which control feelings of fullness and hunger, are affected by sleep deprivation.
When you don't sleep enough, your brain raises ghrelin levels and lowers leptin, stimulating your appetite.
Poor sleep can also make you too exhausted to exercise. In addition, reduced activity can eventually cause weight gain because you don't burn enough calories.
Not getting enough sleep can reduce the amount of insulin your body releases after eating. And it is also linked to insulin resistance, increasing the risk of diabetes and obesity.
Sleep deprivation increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. This is because your body needs sleep to keep your blood vessels and heart healthy. Sleep also helps the body repair and heal the heart and blood vessels. In addition, it helps to reduce inflammation and maintain healthy blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
Hormone production depends on sleep. Waking up through the night can interrupt the process. For example, testosterone production requires at least three hours of uninterrupted sleep. Poor sleep may also affect the production of growth hormones in children and young people.
The basic treatment for sleep deprivation is to sleep more, usually around 7 to 9 hours a night.
But this may prove challenging, especially if you've had insomnia for several weeks. You may suffer from a sleep disorder which can be diagnosed and treated by a doctor or sleep specialist.
These are some common sleep disorders:
Your physician may order a sleep study to measure the quality of your sleep, either at a sleep centre or at home.
A sleep disorder such as sleep apnea can be treated with a device that keeps the airway open while you sleep.
Most adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep a night. If you aren't sleeping enough, the following tips will help you establish a better sleep routine:
Understanding the consequences of not getting enough sleep puts you in an excellent position to ensure you get enough. Most people find that establishing good sleep hygiene improves their sleep patterns. But if you are still not sleeping well, talk to a medical professional. There may be an underlying health condition that is disrupting your sleep and requires treatment.

Letting go: A guide for survivors
Facing the loss of a family member or close friend is probably one of the most difficult challenges that life throws at us. When we've lost a partner, parent, brother or sister, we're likely to experience intense grief.
Do you expect too much from others?
Do you expect more from others than they are prepared to give? Signs that you may be asking too much - and how to break the pattern.
Why it's never too late to change
People always think: that’s just me. I'm not good at 'X', that is just my character. Here are some reasons why it's never too late to change.
It’s such a positive thing to do and hope springs eternal, so why not commit yourself to a change this year? Here’s our tips on how to stick to your new year’s resolutions.
Waking Up Tired? Here's Why (And What Really Helps)
It’s a common complaint: waking up tired, even after 7 or 8 hours of sleep. Often, the issue lies in the quality of sleep, not just the quantity.
Do you have anxiety dreams? Are you dreaming the same scenario over and over again? What does it mean, and what can you do to help?
Motivation can be somewhat elusive - some days, you just can't seem to make yourself do the stuff you don't want to. But putting things off just leads to stress, frustration and a sense of guilt.
Do you suffer from a disorder known as "musturbation"? This term was first coined in the 1950s by psychotherapist Albert Ellis and described the way a negative inner voice rules our minds and bludgeons us with words such as "must", "should", and "ought".
Are you afraid of being unable to sleep?
Do you worry about not being able to sleep? Maybe you worry about not falling asleep, or perhaps you are anxious about waking up frequently during the night. Others may suffer from somniphobia, a fear of sleep. They try to avoid sleep because they need to stay watchful and alert, worrying that something terrible might happen while they slumber.
Let's make 2021 better than 2020
For many people, 2020 has been one of the worst years they can remember. The COVID -19 pandemic and social unrest have changed our lives in ways we would not have believed possible a year ago. And when January 2021 comes around, we're still likely to be facing many challenges. Can 2021 be a better year?
