A member asked:
Is it common for lack of sleep to cause anxiety? i havent been getting as much as id like because my son and work. i have a history of anxiety
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very much so!: Both anxiety and depression result from sleep loss. And if this question is about yourself may I suggest psychotherapy? Medications alone will not do it. Meds and therapy are the best combination.
