American Study: 70% of Gen Z Cannot Sleep at Night Due to Financial Anxiety



A recent study conducted by Amerisleep in the United States revealed that 70% of Gen Z suffer from sleep difficulties due to financial anxiety.

📍Key sources of anxiety:
✔️ Rising inflation: and its direct impact on purchasing power.
✔️ Increased housing costs: and growing burden of monthly rents.
✔️ Job insecurity: persistent worry about labor market volatility.
Behaviors that intensify stress:
The study indicates that many face this anxiety through negative behaviors rather than practical solutions, such as:
✔️ Staying in bed for extended periods without purpose.
✔️ Excessive social media browsing or watching television before sleep.

These habits not only increase stress, but also lead to circadian rhythm disruption and worsen feelings of instability.

📍Expert recommendations for regaining control:
✔️ Schedule your worries: Set aside a specific time during the day to write down financial problems and possible solutions, which helps clear the mind before rest time.
✔️ Strengthen financial discipline: Start by setting small and achievable financial goals, such as creating a weekly budget or simple emergency fund, to increase the sense of control over financial destiny.
✔️ Screen-free sleep environment: Avoid using smartphones before bed, and replace digital browsing with quiet activities such as reading, journaling, or practicing breathing exercises.
✔️ Light physical activity: Practice simple exercises that help the body relax and release nervous tension resulting from work stress...
