What Happens When You Don’t Sleep? The Consequences of Sleep Deprivation

Are you feeling tired, or are you suffering from sleep deprivation? The effects of sleep deprivation can include irritability, drowsiness, and an inability to think clearly. But the effects of chronic sleep deprivation are much worse, and they can take a serious toll on your body and psyche. Chronic sleep deprivation can lead to a weakened immune system, an increased risk of obesity, and potential for depression.

In fact, to learn how sleep deprivation impacts the body, Randy Gardner participated in a 1964 Stanford Sleep Study and went a record 11 days without sleep!

Don’t be like Randy.
