Autonomic nervous system, also known as autonomic nervous system, is the nervous system responsible for regulating the internal automatic functions of the body, including heart rate, breathing, digestion, sleep and so on. It is divided into sympathetic nervous system and parasympathetic nervous system, which are balanced to maintain the normal function of the body.
When people are in a state of tension, nervousness or emotional distress, the balance of autonomic nervous system may be disturbed, resulting in excessive activation of sympathetic nervous system or insufficient function of parasympathetic nervous system. This imbalance may lead to insomnia, anxiety and depression.
Insomnia refers to the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep, which may be related to the overactivation of the sympathetic nervous system. Anxiety and depression may be related to the dysfunction or imbalance of parasympathetic nervous system, which leads to the negative effects of emotions and emotional fluctuations.
Although insomnia, anxiety and depression are related to autonomic nervous dysfunction, their causes are complex, including the comprehensive effects of biological, psychosocial and other factors. Therefore, when diagnosing and treating these problems, it is very important to comprehensively consider the physical and mental health factors of individuals. If you are troubled by these symptoms, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor or mental health expert for professional evaluation and advice.
