Have you ever wondered why you create false scenarios in your head before going to bed? Experts provide an explanation behind this popular bedtime habit.
Getting a new promotion at work, going on a trip to a paradise island, living the wedding of your dreams… these are just some of the thousands of false scenarios that people imagine every day.
These “dreams”, which in some cases provide a feeling of well-being, can however prevent a good night’s sleep, reported The Mirror.
“When people are worried regarding something, creating scenarios of what might happen can help them feel more secure in different situations,” psychologist Brandy Smith said in a discussion. with British mattress review company Sleepopolis.
Although these scenarios can be useful for resolving conflicts or making a decision, or even for reassurance, the “line remains thin” between resolution and anxiety, he told the British media.
Indeed, for people who are stressed or anxious, this situation can quickly become distressing stories, and can occur more often the day before an important or anxiety-provoking day.
It is therefore very healthy to create false scenarios before going to bed, as long as they do not become a constant source of stress, according to the psychologist.
