Detailed explanation-1: -The alcohol in your system will mean you spend less time in the important Rapid Eye Movement (REM) stage of sleep, 2 with the end result that you wake up feeling less refreshed. Even just a couple of drinks will have an effect.
Detailed explanation-2: -Alcohol consumption and psychological distress are associated with possible REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), according to a population-based cohort study published in Neurology. In addition, the results also replicate previous findings of an association between possible RBD and smoking, low education, and male sex.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the first hours after drinking and taking a sleeping pill, a person may feel tired, fatigued, and be able to fall asleep quickly. However, the sleep they are obtaining usually isn’t good, quality sleep. When taken together, alcohol and sleeping pills reduce brain-wave activity and prevent deep REM sleep.
Detailed explanation-4: -REM reduction becomes less pronounced with continued alcohol use, but a REM rebound often appears with alcohol cessation. Slow wave sleep increases after moderate to high bedtime alcohol use, but the effect of lower doses on slow wave sleep are again less certain.
