Can't sleep on a full moon?

Question

Mujhe hamesha full moon nights par neend nahi aati. Bohut ajeeb lagta hai par yeh sach hai. Kya iska koi scientific reason hai ya sirf mera dimaag hai?

Haan na, even I feel so restless and awake during full moon nights, the room feels too bright even with curtains closed. Some people say the energy is very high during this time, ho na. Try to use a dark eye mask to block the light.

I thought I was the only one who noticed this! Every time there's a full moon, my sleep schedule goes completely out of the window. I end up staying awake till 4 AM scrolling on my phone or listening to random podcasts.

Oh, don't stress too much about it, buddy! It's actually a proven thing that lunar cycles can slightly affect our deep sleep stages. Just enjoy the beautiful moonlight, read a book, and don't force yourself to sleep if your mind is active.

I am experiencing this for the first time and I am a bit confused. Does the moon's gravity or light actually impact our brain, or is it just a psychological thing? I would love to know if there is any scientific reason behind this.

In our family, elders say that full moon nights bring restless energy, and they suggest drinking a glass of warm milk to calm down. However, when I discussed this with my physician, he said it's mostly due to the extra ambient light disrupting melatonin. Trusting the medical explanation, I just use thick blackout curtains now.
