[Sleep at an anxious times]. / Son v trevozhnoe vremya.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the problem of sleep disturbance has become particularly acute. The epidemic of coronavirus infection and lockdowns, the flow of contradictory information, as well as the decline in well-being have led to an almost threefold increase in the frequency of sleep disorders against the background of a surge in anxiety and depressive disorders. At the same time, the impact on sleep of foreign policy events and domestic tensions is still awaiting evaluation. According to the 1991 Gulf conflict health monitoring data, sleep disturbances were the most frequent manifestation of neurocognitive dysfunction along with irritability, reduced attention span, and forgetfulness.
