For most people, the last thing you do before going to sleep is to scroll & chat and the first thing upon wakening up is to check through your phone again. If you see yourself in this category of people that always keep their mobile phone next to their bed at night, then take note of this.

What is the health implication? How might this impact your ability to sleep? All these scenarios are what is common to most mobile users.

I have heard people say “I couldn’t sleep” or “I slept late” or “sleep no gree come (Nigeria pidgin)”. Why? This is basically because mobile phones are believed to give off Blue Light- a type that studies have suggested that it can affect the production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin and disrupt our circadian rhythms. Circadian rhythms may mean difficulties falling asleep or staying awake at the appropriate time.

Generally, keeping your phone near you during sleep hours (at night) may prompt a continuous desire to continue refreshing, checking, responding, scrolling, clicking, posting, or playing games which exposes your eyes to blue light causing a reduction in sleep or Insomnia- Difficulty/trouble falling asleep.

Studies have revealed that mobile phone gives off electromagnetic radiation (EMR) which is a combination of electrical and magnetic energy that travels through space at the speed of light.

This radiation when it is high, it has a thermal effect; that is, it raises the body temperature and there are also concerns that it can cause headaches or brain tumors and body pain.

when it is close to your head while sleeping, you might wake up with a headache, body pain, or body weakness.

Mobile devices are designed to enhance our lives and not disrupt it.

What you should do?
Always reduce screen brightness, get an alarm clock if necessary. You should put your phone to charge in another room. Better still, you can switch it off.

So I hope this helps.

I don't think one should go to bed every day expecting emergencies to arise. I would prefer to have a sound night rest than be awoken now and then unnecessarily by phone notifications.

That's why it is called an emergency. You didn't expect it to arise, you didn't plan for it, you didn't know it will happen, but unfortunately it does happen, so since you don't have control or know how or when it will happen, the best you can do is to put some measures in place in case it happens.
Having a phone at least close-by, though not on you while sleeping has helped save a lot of lives during emergencies.
However, it does not have to be on you or too close to you. It should be at a reasonably safe distance away from you but close enough so you can hear it ring.

We learn everyday

What if you or your partner are specialists. Without being able to answer quickly at anytime could leave both of you worse for wear particularly at night.

Nice write up but not possible though.

Some of us experience epileptic power supply hence our phones are close to us as source of light.

Also to check time.

There are cheap rechargeable torchlights from Wuhan China.

oversabi, if e wan happen e go tell before e happen abi?

rubbish... as if people didn't have sleeping issues when there wasn't mobile phone

No be every body get phone

This solves the issue of white light emission.

However, keeping your phone far away is the best solution.

These Scientists(whites) Will Always See Problems In Everything But They Won't See Problems In Having Anal Sex, Gay, Sucking D*ck Or D Vargina, Sex With Dolls Or With Animals.

We all for don die since the invention of mobile phone.
