How important is a good deep sleep

So i am dealing with hypertonic pelvic floor and tightness in the internal anal spincture.

I got great improvements in constipation after adding probiotics benefibre and metamucil to my diet with magnesium glycinate at night low dose with adequate water not too much .

Recently had a very depressed phase and i couldn't poop for a week . Once i changed my sleep routine I can poop not like before but i can poop I hope once I fix sleep and eat on time relax myself breath well stretch and do internal works i can go back to normal again.

Sleeplessness, sleeping late at night can cause alot of stress in the body. It's very common thing we hear but i think most of us don't follow this and stress out and overthink alot at night.

Anyone experienced the same? Do you guys think i can retrain my bowel movements routine again with the same pt and fiber and relaxation?

Huge. Even sleep schedule changes greatly affect the gi tract.
