I recently came across some fascinating research on Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep and its impact on depression and anxiety. It turns out that REM sleep, the stage of sleep where we dream, plays a crucial role in our mental health. Studies have shown that disruptions in REM sleep can worsen symptoms of depression and anxiety. On the other hand, a healthy REM sleep pattern can help in the recovery process. So, it's essential to prioritize our sleep quality to maintain good mental health.
