Stress Sleep: Why You Still Feel Tired After 8 Hours
Stress sleep is a common experience where people feel tired even after sleeping for eight hours. This phenomenon, though not a formal medical diagnosis, is linked to psychological stress. Experts like Delnna Rrajesh, a psychotherapist, explain that stress activates the body's alerting systems, releasing hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones can disrupt the ability to relax and achieve restful sleep. Even with sufficient hours in bed, fragmented sleep can leave individuals feeling physically and mentally drained. Poor-quality sleep can affect concentration, memory, and emotional regulation, creating a cycle where stress disrupts sleep and disturbed sleep worsens stress. Managing stress-related sleep issues involves both sleep habits and emotional well-being, including consistent routines, relaxation exercises, and addressing the root causes of stress.
