It’s very natural these days to have sleepless nights because of the stress at work. It not only deprives us of sleep but also affects our emotional well being. It also leads to irritability. Insomnia leads to a poor quality of sleep where you may be disturbed quite often at night making it hard to fall back to sleep again. This makes you feel groggy and lethargic the next morning. It also decreases focus and makes you less attentive to work. If you are chronically sleep deprived go to the doctor immediately.
