Sleep & Your Mental Health I new study published in Scientific America found that a lack of sleep can actually cause psychiatric symptoms and disorders. Do you have a mental illness or just a lack of sleep? Lack of sleep can cause emotional problems, irritability, depression, hallucination (dreaming while awake) and paranoia (as in schizophrenia), emotions instability (such as bipolar and personality disorders).

sorry im just zoning out im watching this for the 2nd time cause i cant remember what i just watch
i dont dream AHHHhhh
I Sleep for about 3-6hrs a day i havent slept in the past 24
i havent been sleeping hardly at all lately and now i feel like im losing my mind i dont remember things i see stuff and i feel like i cant be around those i love cuz i see the changes and i hate what im turning into but i cant stop it like im not in control
when i sleep for a long time i just feel even more tired
I have insomnia and it takes me about an hour or two to get to sleep but once I am sleeping I dream a lot and when I wake up, after a long sleeping duration, I feel tired! . . . it’s like if you sleep too much you get sleep deprived!?!
I’ve intentionally experimented with sleep deprivation. it seemed to make me slightly more creative, but moody and I didn’t want to be around people. once I started getting enough sleep, these things stopped. sleep deprivation effects are very temporary. caffeine intake was very high in my time with no sleep.
I am quite moody if I don’t get enough sleep.
I find that cannabis helps me sleep when I am particularly stressed. I don’t work two jobs like you, for that matter, no job for me.
It’s been almost a full year now since I’ve had one week of consistent sleep (8 hours a night or more) I’ve felt depressed and also felt like I’m living in a dream for about 85% of this past year. I know now sleep is number one in getting me better but there’s a problem, even if I wanted to get sleep I can’t. I’ve tried literally everything from exercise to drinking milk before bed to getting natural sunlight each day to meditation and none of it works. So, what do I do?
Lack of sleep can also cause diabetes.
Sleep is far more important to me than anything… knowing that it takes me awhile to fall asleep, and knowing that I don’t sleep for more than 30 minutes in the day time… I always make certain that I factor in my abilities to get a good night’s sleep when it comes to a job I apply for, accept, and when it comes to whatever activities I may do at night.
NO AMOUNT of money is worth my sleep… neither are good grades, which is why I stopped doing all-nighters to finish a paper.
I know that I am definitely NOT getting enough sleep the way I want to and the way that I used to.
This was really helpful
Great video! and yeah I really need to sleep more hours
People are not getting enough sleep because of increasing work hours and long commutes both ways.
I know people who have to go to bed within one hour of getting home from work. As nobody wants to spend their lives either working or sleeping, workers resent going to bed very early, they want to have a life so they actively fight against exhaustion and are even more tired the next day.
A couple of years ago I was so tense about an upcoming third year university exam that I was awake for 40 hours straight right before the exam.
I sat the exam and actually passed. I felt extremely tired afterwards.
when i dont sleep….i feel more active its weird. when i dont sleep for like 48 hrs i feel like i remmember more things and do better on tests because i stayed awake from 12am to 7am studying for a test and going to school and taking the test and got 90+ alll the time =) i like it but later i crash and thats the bad part.
I get a feeling of disconnection with my body and surroundings, short bursts of short term memory loss and horrible panic attacks when I have to move to somewhere or do something

Now on psychotropic drugs, she takes Celexa for Depression, Trilafon (voices and hallucinations), Cogentin (prevent side effects from Trilafon), Klonopin (anxiety, insomnia), and Depakote (moodiness).
My 26 y old sister was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder in August 09 after experiencing very irregular sleeping patterns for several weeks (two or three). Overwhelmed with school tests, started drinking large amounts of coffee and herbal mate. Paranoic symptoms emerge, yelling and impersonating and was taken to the ER.
sorry not being eny ones ginny pig without cheese son
well, i dont know much about this, but if im honest i sleep a lot, like some times 16 hours a day, but i rarely dream, i have seen that the day i actualy dream about something i feel a lil bit more calm, because im a very agresive person, in fact when i dont sleep well i can be really problematic, one time i only sleept like 3 hours in 3 days (school exam close) and a friend of mine was trying 2 get me 2 walk with him 2 the store and i got really pissed and actually KO’d my friend
She’s taken, bud.
