Signs and symptoms of sleep deprivation
Sleep deficiency can disrupt a
person’s day to day plans, making them feel fatigued and still sleepy when they
wake up in the morning.
You may have sleep deprivation
if you feel sleepy while doing these activities:
- Sitting down while in a public place, for instance the movies, a meeting, or a classroom
- Being in a car for an hour without a break
- Sitting down and having a conversation with someone
- Sitting silently after eating lunch
- Sitting in the car and being stuck in traffic
- Reading
- Watching TV
Sleep deficiency can create
issues with your learning, focusing, and responding. You might experience
trouble making decisions, resolving problems, remembering things, maintaining your
feelings and behavior, and dealing with change. Also, you may find that it takes you
longer to complete everyday jobs, you make more mistakes, and you have a
slower reaction time.
If reading this post has caused you to be able to
relate and identify with the indications mentioned, then definitely pay
a visit to your doctor so you can explore these issues further and fix them! 🙂
