Increased Anxiety
People with night sweats may experience increased anxiety. Frequent interruptions of sleep patterns caused by discomfort or changing wet clothing and bedding throughout the night may affect a person's mental health. Night sweats may also be incredibly embarrassing when sleeping with a partner and may lead to anxiety about waking them up with a wet bed.
Meditation, bedtime yoga and breathing exercises may help lower stress and anxiety caused by night sweats.
