Insomniacs can't forget cringe-worthy mistakes they have made in the past

Sleep helps you to get over embarrassing moments, scientific research has found. Getting a good night's rest helps your brain resolve emotions - helping you to deal with cringe-worthy episodes in life, researchers believe. But scientists found that insomniacs remain haunted by embarrassing moments. It is thought that their brains have not had a chance to deal with the episode. Researchers at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience based their research on 27 people with insomnia and 30 normal sleepers.
