The influence of sleep on your self-control

The influence of sleep on your self-control

Do you catch yourself snapping while your best-intentioned partner does something nice for you? Check whether you have slept enough.

Less self-control after a bad night's sleep
According to research from Clemson University, little or irregular sleep makes you less able to control yourself. A provocative comment to your colleague or even an aggressive swipe is then made faster. You also make impulsive decisions faster at work or privately.

This proves once again how important enough sleep is. Poor sleep can have a lot of impact on your relationships or on the development of an addiction.
