Having less than 7 hours of sleep regularly may even have consequences on your entire body. An underlying sleep disorder could also be an underlying cause. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as your body needs oxygen, water and food, it needs enough good quality sleep. You don&#8217;t just rest your body when you sleep, your body also heals itself and restores its chemical balance. New thought connections are also formed in the brain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, poor quality sleep or insufficient sleep can lead to poor life quality and even a shortened lifespan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Symptoms of sleep deprivation include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>excessive sleepiness<\/li><li>frequent yawning<\/li><li>irritability<\/li><li>daytime fatigue <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not enough to take stimulants, such as caffeine, to make up for your body&#8217;s need for sleep. This can actually make it worse by making it more difficult to fall asleep at night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chronic sleep deprivation can interfere with your body&#8217;s internal systems and cause more than the symptoms above. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_during_sleep\"><\/span>What happens during sleep? <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pathways between neurons are formed in your brain. This helps you remember new information learned. Sleep deprivation, however, leaves your brain sluggish and ineffective in its function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your immune system is also hard at work, producing antibodies and cytokines to fight against pathogens. So cytokines even promote sleep, increasing the efficiency of your immune system. This means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Insufficient sleep = weaker immune system = longer recovery\/higher risk of getting sick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long-term sleep deprivation can put you at a higher risk for NCDs (non-communicable diseases) such as diabetes and heart disease. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_body\"><\/span>Your body<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Central_nervous_system\"><\/span>Central nervous system <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chronic sleep deprivation can interrupt how your body normally communicates with itself, through the central nervous system. It is also known as the main information highway of your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You could also have difficulty focusing or remembering new information. The signals may be delayed, your coordination decreased and you could even be at a higher risk for accidents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sleep deprivation can also negatively impact your emotional state, leaving you prone to mood swings and impatience. It can also impair your decision-making and creativity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Have you ever gone without sleep for more than a day?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have, chances are you could begin to hallucinate &#8211; see or hear things that don&#8217;t exist. It can also trigger mania in people with bipolar mood disorder. There are other psychological risks. These include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>impulsivity<\/li><li>anxiety<\/li><li>depression<\/li><li>paranoia<\/li><li>suicidal thoughts <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A potentially dangerous symptom of chronic sleep deprivation is microsleep. These are episodes where you fall asleep for a few to several seconds without realising it. Microsleep cannot be controlled, and if you are driving this can cause accidents to occur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Respiratory_system\"><\/span>Respiratory system <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To sleep well, you need to be able to breathe. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can interrupt your sleep and lower its quality. This is when the muscles in your throat temporarily relax causing your airway to narrow or be closed off <em>i.e. you become unable to breathe. <\/em>One of the more noticeable symptoms is snoring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this happens, your body forces you awake, interrupting your sleep. This can cause sleep deprivation and leave you more vulnerable to respiratory infections such as a the flu. Sleep deprivation can even make pre-existing respiratory conditions worse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Digestive_system\"><\/span>Digestive system<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sleep deprivation is actually a risk factor for obesity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Why?<\/em> It&#8217;s all about the hormones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sleep controls the levels of hunger &amp; fullness hormones, leptin and ghrelin, respectively. Insulin, the hormone that converts glucose into energy, is also affected by sleep. Lack of sleep has been associated with insulin resistance, meaning that your body&#8217;s tolerance for glucose is reduced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sleep deprivation can also make you too tired to exercise and overtime, this lack of physical activity can lead to weight gain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cardiovascular_system\"><\/span>Cardiovascular system<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Processes that maintain the healthiness of your heart and blood vessels are affected by sleep. These include the processes that influence your blood sugar, blood pressure and inflammation levels. Even the healing of your blood vessels and heart are affected by sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t get enough sleep, your risk of cardiovascular disease can also increase. One <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/2047487317702043\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> linked insomnia to an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Endocrine_system\"><\/span>Endocrine system<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The endocrine system controls hormone levels in your body. Hormone production depends on your sleep. For example, testosterone production requires at least 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep, or about your first R.E.M episode. Waking during this time, can affect hormone production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, children and adolescents, sleep is vital to ensure the production of growth hormones. These hormones promote muscle mass formation and the repair of cells and tissues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pituitary gland may release growth hormones throughout the day, but sufficient sleep and exercise also help the release of growth hormones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"I_am_sleep_deprived_What_now\"><\/span>I am sleep deprived.

This will differ among individuals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some of you may have been sleep deprived for a long time. In some cases, you might need to see a doctor or sleep specialist who can diagnose the cause of your sleep deprivation. They can do this by doing a sleep study. If you are diagnosed with a sleep disorder, they may treat it with medication or medical device to help you get a better night&#8217;s sleep on a regular basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of you may even have a sleep disorder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sleep_disorders\"><\/span>Sleep disorders:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>obstructive sleep apnea <\/li><li>narcolepsy<\/li><li>restless leg syndrome <\/li><li>insomnia <\/li><li>circadian rhythm disorders <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_prevent_sleep_deprivation\"><\/span>How do I prevent sleep deprivation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You sleep.
