Why do I dream every night?

Dreams are normal physiological phenomena. Excessive dreaming is closely related to short deep sleep, insufficient sleep depth and poor sleep quality. Excessive dreaming does not mean an increase in the number of dreams, but an increase in the number of memories of dreams. "Dreaming all night" is indeed a self-feeling, and is by no means an intentional fabrication. However, feelings can also be illusions, because different functional states lead to different dream sensations and cannot accurately reflect objective facts. For example, if you feel very tired, in fact, your body and brain have had enough rest, and you will feel energetic after washing up. You don't need to worry too much about this situation. But if you suffer from insomnia due to excessive dreaming, you need to pay attention.

Is dreaming a sign of good or bad sleep?

Sleep efficiency is greater than 80% is considered good

Maybe you’ve heard the term “sleep efficiency”

Sleep efficiency = sleep time / time in bed

If the result is greater than 85%, it is considered normal, and if it can reach 90%, it is very good.

For most people, you can make judgments based on the following:

Fall asleep quickly, fall asleep within 30 minutes.

Sleep deeply, breathe deeply, and don't wake up easily.

No or very few nighttime awakenings, and shorter awakening times.

Get up quickly and feel energetic in the morning.

You will be clear-headed and efficient at work during the day.

In fact, young people generally go to bed later than the elderly, which is mainly related to their biological clock. This is a normal phenomenon.

Not to mention that everyone has their own biological clock. Some people are "night owls" who go to bed late and get up late, while others are "early birds" who go to bed early and get up early, and most people are somewhere in between these two extremes.

Therefore, as long as you maintain adequate sleep time and a regular schedule, and pay attention to the sleeping environment, you can sleep well even if you go to bed late.

Why do people dream?

1. Psychological problems

People with psychological problems, such as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, etc., are prone to dreaming while sleeping.

For this group of people, psychological counseling is needed and relevant drug treatment is also needed.

2. Low blood sugar

When blood sugar is too low, the brain's energy supply will be insufficient, leading to nerve excitement, and nightmares will follow.

You can eat some high-sugar foods in moderation, such as candy, biscuits, desserts, etc.

3. High mental stress

If the mental stress is relatively high, the stress will often turn into dreams, thus affecting sleep.

Learn to combine work and rest to divert attention, such as watching movies, traveling, and exercising.

4. Insufficient Qi and blood, weak constitution

Insufficient Qi and blood and weak physical constitution can lead to decreased function of internal organs. As a result, when you sleep, the organs in your body will send a "help" signal to the brain, which will then turn into dreams when the brain reacts.
