Objectives: To explore how the consumption of depressant drugs affects sleep disorders and psychological well-being in adults.
Methodology: A literature review was conducted through searches in databases such as PubMed, SciELO, Cochrane, BVS and MEDES, applying inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results and Discussion: The 8 selected studies show that alcohol and benzodiazepine consumption negatively affects sleep quality by reducing its duration and efficiency, increasing the risk of psychiatric issues. Cannabis use was linked to higher levels of psychological distress in women and an inverse relationship with psychological stress. Gender differences were observed, with higher insomnia prevalence in women and more snoring in men. Various assessment tools were used to analyze substance use, psychological well-being, and sleep disorders.
Conclusion: There is a clear relationship between the use of depressant substances and sleep disorders, with a negative impact on emotional well-being. In addition to the need for accurate assessment tools.
