Poor sleep poor relationships



Lack of sleep needs to be treated as a major health issue, according to a report published by the Mental Health Foundation.
The report, Sleep Matters, suggests a link between insomnia and poor relationships, low energy levels and an inability to concentrate.
Poor sleep has already been linked to depression, immune deficiency and heart disease.
The report calls for GPs to have more training to recognize the symptoms.
The number of adults suffering from insomnia in the UK has previously been estimated at around 30%.
Nearly 6,800 people took part in an online survey, believed to be the largest of its type in the UK, for this report.
