A new report has revealed that the busy youngsters of the world have been affected by yet another form of stress, this one being majorly startling. It is known as `sleep texting'. A recent research has shown that the texting addicts might be so hooked on to their phones these days that they might even text their beloved while they are asleep. This has become like a global phenomenon, slowly, and is spreading far and wide.

Youngsters tend to keep texting their friends till late at night, tend to take their phones to the bed, and end up texting in the subconscious state of mind as well. It may not be totally scientifically proved that people can text while they are totally asleep, but there might be a few links involved to texting while half asleep, as said by the scientists.

People tend to be so stressed out by the end of the day, that they fall asleep as soon as they lie on their beds, and this is when they are texting people, in half sleep.

It is something so common and so incorporated in people's day to day lives these days that they might not even tend to notice it.

"Patients reported incidents of sleep texting - were advised to leave their mobile phones outside the bedroom, it is one of those things that happen, but it is very rare, and certainly not a common trend", revealed David Cunnington, a sleep specialist

It was further added that one needs to get hooked off their phone for a while, so that they get a good night's sleep and tend to wake up fresh, and without sleep texting.

It is essential that the mind, and body receives total rest at nights and this is possible only when one is hooked off the phone.
