There is no doubt that social networks have become an integral part of our lives, but how we use them can have an enormous impact on our sleep.
And a new medical study revealed a link related to our behavior on social media and the quality of sleep we get, according to the British newspaper “The Sun”.
And according to a new study, “social media posting” before bed can keep you awake for hours.
The study found that posting content an hour before bedtime reduces sleep by up to 3 hours.
Researchers tracked more than 51,000 Reddit users’ posts from 2005 to 2021 to see how the time they posted affected their stay on the site.
They analyzed more than 236 million posts over 16 years, and measured the number of posts made following a user’s bedtime.
According to the findings, published in the journal Sleep Medicine, users were more likely to stay on Reddit one to three hours following their usual bedtime when the last post was an hour before their bedtime.
Users who posted content several times an hour before bedtime were significantly more likely to stay awake beyond their bedtimes.
“This might be the result of several factors, from screen lights disrupting the circadian rhythm, to anticipation of a response,” said William Myerson, of Duke University. “Reddit users were more likely to stay awake beyond their usual bedtime and post through the night when they were posting content to sites.” Socialize an hour before bedtime, especially if they are active in highly interactive forums.”
And with using social media even right before bedtime becoming an increasingly popular routine, with many checking their phones while in bed, researchers have raised concerns that staring at the blue light of a screen prevents the body’s natural sleep cycle from kicking off, disrupting the hormones that make us feel. sleepy.
