What is poor sleep quality? Poor sleep quality refers to sleep that isn't restful or restorative. When you have poor sleep quality, you may wake up feeling tired and groggy even after what should've been a full night's sleep.
Some key signs of poor sleep quality include:
- Frequent nighttime awakenings that prevent you from entering deep, restorative stages of sleep
- Trouble falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night
- Daytime fatigue, sleepiness, and irritability
- Lack of mental clarity and poor focus during waking hours
Poor sleep quality has many potential causes, including:
- Underlying medical issues like sleep apnea or restless leg syndrome
- Medications, caffeine, alcohol, or other substances impacting sleep
- Environmental factors like noise, light, or unsuitable mattresses/pillows
- Emotional issues like stress, anxiety, or depression
- Poor sleep habits and lack of a consistent sleep schedule
The effects of poor sleep quality exacerbate over time if root causes aren't addressed.
Chronic poor sleep takes a major toll both physically and mentally, negatively impacting:
- Immune function
- Energy levels
- Mood regulation
- Cognitive performance
- Cardiovascular health
If you regularly experience poor sleep quality,
talk to your doctor. They can help uncover underlying causes and recommend lifestyle changes or treatment options tailored to your needs.
