Are you lacking Sleep Due to Your Cell Phone?

Have you ever laid awake watching YouTube videos until the waking hours of the sun? Many phone users have lost sleep from spending too much time on their phones. Adolescents have an alarming issue with playing on their phones instead of sleeping. Those using their cell phones at night are lacking sleep, causing sleep deprivation. When one lacks an appropriate amount of sleep, it “disrupts the brain’s ability to balance emotions and thinking abilities, and increases the chances of developing chronic medical problems.”said by Preety, R., Devi, R.
