The Impact of Sleep on Teenage Wellbeing and Academic Performance  

Teenage wellbeing is closely linked to sleep quality and duration. During adolescence, the body undergoes critical development, both physically and emotionally. Sleep supports this development by allowing the brain to process emotions, consolidate memories, and regulate hormones. When teenagers don’t get enough sleep, it can lead to mood swings, anxiety, and even depression. According to the CDC, teenagers should get at least 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night to ensure optimal wellbeing.
