Mashup Score: 1Sleep deprivation may stop us from 'blocking' unwanted memories - 6 month(s) ago
Disrupted sleep and sleep loss interferes with the brain’s ability to filter out bad memories, which could contribute to a range of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The study also suggests that rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep, where dreaming occurs, may be crucial to the ‘housekeeping’ of the brain by maintaining the ability to keep unwanted memories and thoughts at bay. https://t.co/zhWustJG5Y
