Nowadays many people complain that they have difficulty getting enough sleep. What problems can lack of sleep cause ? What can be done about lack of sleep?

Presently, a lot of individuals complain about insomnia. The inability to sleep can increase daytime somnolence,

however

, to improve the quality of sleep a

person

could get especially at night, it is advised that bright lights should be avoided. The level of sleep a

person

gets at midnight, particularly, determines how active he or she feels the following

day

as well as affects personal productivity. Lack of sleep can cause daytime sleepiness and

this

obviously affects the

day

's activities.

By contrast

, a good night rest increases the energy level and

also

clears the mind and keeps the brain active for the

next

day

's work. Research has shown that people who stay awake all night or only sleep for less than 8 hours, wake up feeling very tired, lazy and unmotivated to carry out their daily routines,

for example

.

Therefore

, it advised that to maximize how much sleep one could get, bright lights should be turned off.

However

, if an individual prefers to sleep in an illuminated place,

then

preferable it should be dim. Alternatively, eye pads should be used to cover the eyes in order to prevent the penetration of the light rays. Specifically, for the geriatric population, studies conducted explained that

this

category set should take rest in bedrooms that have poor lightening as they naturally get less sleep and easily aroused. Another investigation reported that exposure to mobile phone or laptop screens can

also

keep the

person

awake, thereby decreasing the sleep quality. In conclusion, to circumvent the increased rate of reduced strength and sleepiness during the hours of the

day

, it is clearly advised that retiring off at midnight should be done in dark rooms and

also

putting off smartphones or computers before going to bed as

this

would obviously improve the general well-being of the

person

in the morning.
