 people tend to sleep less compared to recent ages. In

 with, social media plays a significant role in

 up feeling energetic in comparison with those who slept under eight or nine hours.

, he would feel sensitive. In conclusion, in the past people slept more than nowadays. I reckon that social media has a big role in
this
 issue,
moreover
, it has a negative impact on the

's productivity.
