3. Getting up at Night to Urinate
Drinking too much liquid before bed – especially diuretics like alcohol – can make anyone visit the bathroom in the middle of the night. However, if you find that most nights you’re waking up more than once with an urge to empty your bladder, you should see your doctor about a potential problem. This issue is known as nocturia, and although it may seem like a minor inconvenience, the longer you allow your bladder to interrupt your sleep, the more likely you will begin to suffer the consequences of poor sleep patterns.
