What should I do if I feel very tired and can't fall asleep at night? People who work outside hope most to have a good sleep after get off work and have dinner, so that the body can be completely relaxed.

But at night when you don't have to work or study and need to go to bed, you feel very tired but can't fall asleep. What should I do? Let’s find out below.

The length of sleep is also related to life expectancy. A large epidemiological study has confirmed that both too little sleep and too much sleep appear to affect a person's lifespan. So, how much sleep do people need to meet their physiological requirements at different ages? Generally speaking, newborns sleep all the time except for feeding and changing diapers, sleeping about 18 to 22 hours a day; children aged 1 to 2 years sleep 13 to 14 hours a day; children aged 2 to 4 years sleep 12 hours a day; children aged 4 to 7 years sleep 11 hours a day; children aged 7 to 15 years sleep 9 to 10 hours a day; teenagers aged 15 to 20 sleep 8 to 9 hours a day; adults sleep about 8 hours a day; and the elderly sleep about 5 to 6 hours.

Women sleep relatively more than men. However, with the progress of society and the improvement of material and cultural living standards, people's lives are becoming more and more colorful. In addition, human nutritional status, living conditions and environment are constantly improving, and people's concepts of sleep are also changing.

The old concept of "work at sunrise and go to bed at sunset" that simply emphasizes that long sleep is good for health is changing. It is replaced by a new concept that if people want to be healthy, they should sleep less, sleep soundly and sleep well, with less quantity and higher quality. Because according to the laws of nature and the body's regulation, if you sleep too long, your sleep depth will inevitably become shallower; conversely, if you sleep too short, your sleep will become deeper. This means that long sleepers have less deep sleep, while short sleepers have more deep sleep.
