ABSTRACT
Depressive thoughts, aggression, stress, insomnia are some leading problems that we commonly observe in youngsters. A survey has been conducted over 598 young students to assess the prevalance of depressive thoughts and tendency of anger. The study was also aimed to have a close look on the relation of their sleeping pattern with depressive thoughts and anger. In this study it has been reported by many students that they felt the symptoms of depression and irritation in their behaviors for most of the time of their life. Many students have also told about their habit of late sleeping hours or no fixed pattern of sleeping. This habit has shown a significant relation with their tendency of depressive thoughts and anger. On analysis it has been observed that depressive thoughts and anger has a comparatively higher prevalance in those who go to bed after 11p.m. This survey has clearly shown that early and fixed time for going into bed is essential to stay away from the problems of depressive thoughts and anger.
