Sleep Jerks and Anxiety
A study of around 200 adults found that those who experienced hypnic jerks at least once a week reported poorer sleep and more symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, and depression than others. More frequent jerks were also linked to psychological stress and negative thoughts about sleep. The findings do not prove that anxiety causes these jerks or that the jerks lead to mental health problems; the relationship and its direction remain unclear. Occasional hypnic jerks are generally nothing to worry about, but it’s advisable to consult a doctor if they happen often and cause distressing awakenings, fear of sleep, or daytime fatigue.
