Is lying morally wrong?

Lying can be both good and bad. It may lead to positive and negative consequenes. In one instance small lies can deal no harm to others, unlike the bigger ones that can cause severe problems. As long as the person that is being lied to doesn't know about it, it should be OK. On the other hand you can feel guilty about it and make you regret your choice of lying. If the person that is being lied to finds out about the truth it may lead you to lose trust from others.

    So lying is fine if no one finds out you've lied? An interesting moral standpoint ... Does it apply to theft, cheating and murder too?

Maladaptive daydreaming

    Scientists estimate that an average person spends around 47% of their active time daydreaming. Doing so is considered healthy, as it enables us to slow down and collect our thoughts. Some people though, may experience daydreams so intensive that they get distracted very easily. Such a condition is called Maladaptive daydreaming or daydreaming disorder. It usually gets  triggered by stimuli such as smell, noise, sound or even conversation topics. Maladaptive daydreaming can develop as a coping mechanisim in response to trauma or sustained and prolonged stress - it helps to switch off while feeling stressed out. Usually people who already suffer from other mental illnesses or disorders are prone to this condition. OCD, depression and anxiety might be the primary cause of developing maladaptive daydreaming.  https://www.sleepfoundation.org/mental-health/maladaptive-daydreaming

Sleep disorders

 Sleep disorders are conditions that influence the quality and amount of sleep that you get. Everyone can have problems falling asleep once in a while but sleep disorders tend to stretch for long periods of time. Usually as result, even though you’ve slept a healthy, recommended amount of time, you can experience weariness and fatigue. There are around 80 different types of sleep disorders but most common types are insomnia, sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome and narcolepsy. Insomnia prevents you from falling asleep, sleep apnea influences your breathing patterns while in slumber, restless legs syndrome is a type of sleep movement disorder, and narcolepsy makes you fall asleep during the day due to extreme exhaustion. Such conditions aren’t rare to find. Around 70 million people in the US suffer from such disorders. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sleep-disorders/symptoms-causes/syc-20354018

Sleep apnea

     Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder which repeatedly prevents or stops its victim from breathing. The disease cannot kill people but the complications can shorten ones lifespan. It dramatically lowers ones sleep quality and makes it almost impossible to wake up well rested.      There are three different types of sleep apnea - obstructive sleep apnea, central sleep apnea and complex sleep apnea syndrome. The first occurs when ones throat muscles relax. The second happens when our brain doesn't send proper signals to muscles that control breathing. The last one is a combination of the first two and is the most lethal.      Loud snoring, gasping for air during sleep, waking up with a dry mouth and hypersomnia are common symptoms of sleep apnea. It's very hard to find out ourselves that we have sleep apnea and round 38 thousand people die from the disorder annually. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sleep-apnea/symptoms-causes/syc-...
