8. Struggling to Fall Asleep
It would seem that someone suffering from exhaustion would find it very easy to fall asleep at night. However, exhaustion is actually more likely to lead to sleeplessness.
Without its usual amount of sleep, the body functions atypically, causing changes to the mental state and its circadian rhythm, which is responsible for maintaining a healthy sleep/wake cycle. Exhaustion causes the circadian rhythm to malfunction, making it hard for the sleep-deprived to get the shut-eye that they so desperately need.4Flo-Groeneboom E. ‘Insomnia, Excessive Sleepiness, Excessive Fatigue, Anxiety, Depression and Shift Work Disorder in Nurses Having Less than 11 Hours in-Between Shifts.’ https://www.academia.edu/14689376/Insomnia_Excessive_Sleepiness_Excessive_Fatigue_Anxiety_Depression_and_Shift_Work_Disorder_in_Nurses_Having_Less_than_11_Hours_in_Between_Shifts
