Diminished need for rest, also known as decreased
need for sleep or insomnia, is a condition characterized by a reduced
requirement for sleep compared to the average person. Individuals experiencing
this phenomenon often find themselves feeling alert and refreshed despite
getting significantly less sleep than what is typically recommended for their
age group.
Several factors can contribute to diminished need
for rest, including genetic predispositions, underlying medical conditions such
as bipolar disorder or hyperthyroidism, substance use or medication side
effects, stress, and lifestyle factors.
While some people may naturally require less
sleep without experiencing negative consequences, persistent diminished need
for rest can lead to sleep deprivation, which can impair cognitive function,
mood regulation, and overall health. Treatment typically involves addressing
any underlying conditions contributing to the decreased need for rest, adopting
healthy sleep habits, and seeking guidance from healthcare professionals to
ensure adequate rest and overall well-being.
