Sleep dysfunction

Stress may cause some types of sleep disorders:

• Insomnia: Insomnia is a problem getting to sleep, staying asleep, or having a good night's sleep in general. Despite having a comfy bed and enough time to sleep, this still happens. Chronic pressures including family issues, work-related issues, the death of a loved one, and severe illness can all cause insomnia. Stressors that last for a short while might also cause symptoms of insomnia. Once the stressful circumstance is passed, these symptoms will often go away. But for some people, a vicious cycle of daytime sleep anxiety and nighttime sleep loss can lead to chronic insomnia.
• Sleep apnoea: Sleep apnoea is a disorder where there is a recurring collapse of the upper airway during sleep. Along with excessive daytime sleepiness and other daytime impairments, this results in loud snoring, choking episodes, and other symptoms. Chronic stress can result in diseases including hypertension, heart disease, obesity, and diabetes, all of which increase one's chance of developing apnea.
