Depression affects you in different aspects. It can make you feel irritated, angry, feel like life isn't worth living, give negative outlook to a lot of things. You won't enjoy things that once gave you happiness or purpose. You won't sleep well, either oversleeping, undersleeping(insomnia), or sleeping and waking several times at night. You might feel less inclined to socialize and feel like a burden.

If you feel these things, please seek help. If the depression leads to suicidal ideation/thinking/actions, please call a help hotline. They might not all work, but just know there is help.

Here's one number:

Why might lack of sleep increase risk factors for depression and anxiety?

drek231 [11]

Explanation:

Lack of sleep may increase risk factors for anxiety and depression because without sleep, your mind and body are tired. You won't have the energy to do things as well as you would with a healthy amount of sleep, and you would be in a bad mood since you are so tired. You could also always be put on edge because of it, the anxiety of all the work you may have to do and it could stress you out, causing you to be even more tired and anxious. Therefore, the lack of sleep could increase the risk of having depression and anxiety because without the right amount of sleep the day is stressful and too much for the tired mind and body.
