Study Links Quality Sleep To Reduce Loneliness
A new study has found that people who feel lonely and socially iso – lated might benefit from more sleep, especially if they’re a young adult.
The findings were published recently in an online supplement to the journal ‘Sleep’ and they were also presented at the 38th annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS) which was held in Houston, Texas recently.
Better sleep is associated with significantly less emotional and social loneliness, researchers report. Younger adults in particular benefit from better sleep, but people of all ages report less loneliness after they’ve slept well, results show.
While common definitions of loneliness describe it as a state of solitude or being alone, loneliness is actually a state of mind.
Loneliness causes people to feel empty, alone, and unwanted. While people who are lonely often crave human contact, their state of mind makes it more difficult to form connections with others.
Researchers in the United States have said people who feel lonely and socially isolated might benefit from more sleep, especially if they’re a young adult.
