At some point or another everyone feels down after a stressful or upsetting situation. This is perfectly normal. But if your mood doesn’t lift and it persists for an extended period of time, then it’s a good idea to get some help as you may have depression.
Insomnia is the term used to describe either difficulty falling asleep when going to bed, or staying awake during the night. Many people, especially shift workers, suffer from sleep disturbances when they change their sleeping pattern after moving from night shift to afternoon or day shifts and vice versa.
Everyday life is filled with struggles. For some people, stress is so common that it becomes part of their everyday routine. A little bit of stress on your body won’t do you any harm - in fact it can motivate you to do your best. On the other hand, an excessive amount of stress that is ongoing plays havoc on your physical wellbeing. If you constantly find yourself feeling overwhelmed it’s time to get some help.
