“Getting sufficient sleep night after night has been linked to reduced risk factors for developing more serious mental illnesses and affective disorders, like depression especially,” says Elizabeth Kensinger, a professor of psychology at Boston College, and director of the school’s sleep lab. “It also seems like getting a good night’s sleep may minimize the likelihood of having anxiety disorders as well.”
