Sleep Disorders and Mental Health: Exploring the Bidirectional Relationship and Intervention Strategies

Abstract

<p>Sleep disorders and mental health conditions often coexist, with a complex and bidirectional relationship between the two. This research aims to examine the impact of sleep disturbances on mental health outcomes and explore the efficacy of sleep-focused interventions in managing psychiatric conditions. A comprehensive review of the literature will be conducted to analyze existing research studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses. The results will shed light on the relationship between sleep disturbances and mental health by outlining the mechanisms underlying it. In addition, this study will assess how well pharmaceutical therapies and other sleep-focused interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia, work to improve the mental health of people with psychiatric disorders.</p>
