Depression and Insomnia
According to the Family Doctor Association, a recent survey has revealed, “the number of patients displaying symptoms of stress or depression over the last 18 months has increased according to GPs, with more than three-quarters (78%) of those surveyed reporting a rise. Just under half (49%) of patients feeling the pressure were suffering from sleep disorders.”
According to a recent paper in Australian Family Physician, depression is the most common cause of insomnia, and insomnia is highly prevalent in depression.
