How COVID-19 Is Affecting Sleep

For many of us, getting enough rest when there isn’t a pandemic going on is already challenging. According to the National Institutes of Health, more than 50 million Americans deal with sleep disorders. Combine that with the stress brought on by COVID-19 and it’s easy to see why so many suffer from a troubled sleep.

Stress and anxiety are major contributors to poor sleep and they can lead to things like insomnia. However, there are other factors that may be harming sleep quality. For example, the body’s circadian rhythms are affected by sunlight as well as social interactions. With people being asked to remain indoors as much as possible and social distancing still being enforced, the sleep-wake cycle may be having a difficult time regulating itself or it may be entirely confused.

And then there is the problem of people who may be getting too much sleep, which isn’t healthy, either. Do keep in mind that even with the various factors affecting sleep, if your mattress isn’t supporting you, you may experience poor sleep regardless of whether or not a pandemic exists.
