The Relationship Between Neuroticism, Poor Sleep, and Anxiety in Adolescents

One in seven people aged 10 to 19 globally suffers from a mental illness, making up 15% of the worldwide disease burden in this age range. Young adults frequently experience emotional dysregulation, which is a common phenomenon linked with sleeping quality which exacerbates their lifestyle and mental well-being. For this reason, this paper explores the question of: What impacts does neuroticism have on adolescents sleeping quality? From the peer-reviewed journals and empirical findings from a variety of experts in the field of psychology, it is suggested that adolescents have a high probability of encountering obstacles related to sleep and negative emotions. Exploring the relationship between sleep, anxiety, and neuroticism can provide insight into how these factors contribute to chronic mental health burdens, which provides helpful techniques for adolescents in overcoming emotional challenges. This research can be applied through a global lens since adolescents mental health is a rising public health issue with significant impacts on society, such as education and communal well-being. Information about this field can help advise global strategies to promote teenagers social and physical development. Therefore, it is hypothesized that adolescents who score higher on neuroticism will most likely experience anxiety, which negatively influences their sleeping quality. Ultimately, this report emphasizes the need for a multi-faceted approach that combines behavioral, psychological, and biological perspectives to further enhance adolescents sleeping quality and mental health.
