This study investigates the relationship between sleep quality and emotional regulation difficulties in individuals diagnosed with anxiety disorders. Through quantitative analysis of self-reported measures of sleep quality and emotional regulation strategies, this research seeks to better understand how poor sleep impacts emotional regulation and exacerbates anxiety symptoms. Results indicate a strong correlation between poor sleep quality and emotional dysregulation, with sleep disturbances further contributing to anxiety severity. Practical implications for treatment interventions targeting sleep and emotional regulation are discussed.</p> Kinza Javed, Shahab Ali Khan, Awisra Fatima, Sheeza Khalil, Aleena Amin , Mian Muhammad Mohsin Sattar Copyright (c) 2024 Research Journal of Psychology http://ctr.rjmss.com/index.php/19/article/view/23 Sun, 27 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0300
