Drinking Makes You Sleep Badly
Drinking Makes You Sleep Badly
If you thought that a nightcap might help you sleep, you’d be wrong. Though alcohol can help you fall asleep at first, you’ll be sleeping badly all night. And the harmful effects increase depending on how much alcohol you’ve been drinking. A researcher named Irshaad Ebrahim had this to say about alcohol and sleep: “Alcohol may seem to be helping you to sleep, as it helps induce sleep, but overall it is more disruptive to sleep, particularly in the second half of the night.”
If you have a problem with drinking, there’s no telling what it’s doing to your sleep. Are you struggling with fatigue, an inability to focus, or falling asleep during TV or movies? If you take the first steps towards quitting drinking, you could begin to sleep much better and find out what you’ve been missing all these years. This is just one way in which alcoholism or alcohol abuse could be affecting your life. If you quit now, you can really turn your life around.
If you have a problem with alcohol or drug abuse or know someone who does, you should seek help now for yourself or your loved one. Thankfully, there is good help available. Detoxification and behavioral therapy have proven to be effective in treating drug dependence. Addicts are often unable to complete treatment on their own or with family members, so it’s very important to seek the right treatment center.
