Combating Anxiety And Lack Of Sleep In A Pandemic Stricken World

Combating Anxiety And Lack Of Sleep In A Pandemic Stricken World

By: Numaira N 

Did the pandemic blunder with your slumber? You are not alone. Self-isolation, social distancing, and working from home have become part of the norm for the best part of two years now. And this new way of life is taking its physical and mental toll on millions around the world.

The COVID pandemic has had catastrophic economic repercussions. For many, these two years have been beyond stressful and while things are getting back to normal many are still finding it hard to cope.

Apart from increased anxiety, depression and stress the constant lockdowns and forced isolation have also disrupted sleep schedules and daily routine. The habit of working from home and not having to go out has caused people to sleep at odd hours meaning that they constantly feel lethargic and unproductive.

The added anxiety and stress have also triggered sleep deprivation in many people of all genders and ages. According to research conducted in March 2021 by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), more than 50% of Americans experience difficulty falling asleep. More concerningly, 53% of Americans admit to suffering from anxiety and depression since the start of the pandemic.

To help deal with lack of sleep and anxiety many have turned to prescription medications. However, many still have turned to more natural and safer solutions in the form of CBD/melatonin sleep gummies as the answer to falling asleep and dealing with anxiety.

But what are the best quality natural sleeping supplements/gummies for deep and restful sleep?

Well, Let’s find out!

Dealing With Sleep Disorders & Insomnia

Insomnia is a sleep disorder associated with the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep. Americans were affected by insomnia before the pandemic, but it was not as rampant as it is today. A sleepless night once in a while is understandable. But your body might be showing symptoms of insomnia if you can’t sleep carelessly for seven hours at least four days a week. 

Insomnia was prevalent in American society before the pandemic, but it was not very common. The Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine researched insomnia in January 2022. According to the information, about 15-25% of Americans had trouble falling asleep before the start of the pandemic. However, during the pandemic period, a staggering 40% of Americans reported a decline in sleep quality. It is clear from these studies that isolation, complicated changes in lifestyle, and other external factors have resulted in a sharp decline in sleep quality. 

What Are The Best Quality Sleeping Supplements? 

In the United States, people have a ton of options when it comes to insomnia and anxiety supplements. From prescription medication to OTC drugs the options are seemingly endless. However, when it comes to insomnia one needs to be careful.

Often insomnia is caused because of underlying health conditions such as epilepsy, cardiovascular disease, or kidney problems. General physicians take great care to prescribe insomnia medication that does not interfere with any other ongoing medication. This can be difficult as synthetic drugs have a lot of associated side effects.

Some of the side effects of prescription sleeping pills include excessive drowsiness, diarrhea, lightheadedness leading to loss of balance, nausea, memory loss, or a severe allergic reaction. Antidepressants are another way to deal with insomnia, but they often have even more severe side effects.

So, what are the best quality sleeping supplements? Well, that depends on what works for you!

Cannabidiol & Melatonin - The All Natural Gummy Recipe For Deep Sleep

The discovery of melatonin is a recent one. The body naturally produces melatonin to maintain the body’s circadian rhythms. Think of circadian rhythms as the body’s natural timekeeper. Most melatonin production in the body naturally occurs at night, so you feel drowsy before going to bed, and it has been found that excessive exposure to light can prevent melatonin production.

Cannabidiol, a cousin of its more notorious counterpart marijuana has been used in medication for millennia. By combining these two natural ingredients medical experts have devised a unique formula that helps patients suffering from insomnia fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Best of all, since it's all-natural, there are no associated side effects!
