Australian scientists found that 11% of adolescents suffer from insomnia. According to experts, the result of a sleep disorder can be a number of neurological disorders: obsessive-compulsive disorders, anxiety, etc.
300 schoolchildren were interviewed for the time of their greatest activity, as well as the time for going to bed, as well as its total duration. It turned out that, as a rule, insomnia is associated with depression, nervous irritability and increased activity for some time before bedtime. A significant part of adolescents consider themselves "owls." In other words, they cannot fall asleep early and wake up early.
According to scientists, if insomnia is accompanied by depression or increased anxiety, the general negative state worsens. Naturally, alcohol and drug use have a negative effect on sleep normalization.
