Signs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1. Constant Hunger:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

An overworked brain needs sleep to function ably as an engine needs oil to run smoothly. If it doesn\u2019t get enough sleep, then the brain redirects the energy source from \u2018rest<\/em>\u2019 to \u2018food<\/em>\u2019, increasing the level of the hunger hormone,\u00a0ghrelin<\/em>, and making you go on a binge-eating drive. So, if you feel hungrier, it means you\u2019re not getting quality sleep. Moreover, remember when your physician asked you if you’re sleeping on time because you gained those pounds? This is the very reason. Half the people who have an unhealthy sleep cycle end up getting over-weight.<\/p>\n

2. Affected Memory:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Do you find yourself climbing the whole flight of stairs to go the storeroom and then forgetting why you came there in the first place? Or do you keep forgetting where you put the car keys? If yes, then you\u2019ve been going through minute memory lapses, which result from your brain not being able to maintain the nervous system in a fully functional way. Other similar signs are the loss of focus, the inability to make a conscious decision and in extreme cases, daylight delusions. Sleep is essential, after all.<\/p>\n

3. Over-Emotional(ity):<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Sleep helps you maintain composure and balance the different emotional levels. If you\u2019ve been feeling out of balance these days and overreacting to the slightest of situations, then it signifies that you\u2019re not getting enough sleep. Your reason suffers from this too, which proves to be highly disadvantageous in a workplace, when your productivity goes on all low.<\/p>\n

4. Physical Illnesses:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

What happens to a car that keeps on running without any break? It breaks down, that\u2019s what. Similarly, if you\u2019re sleep deprived, you become more prone to getting ill. Your immune system weakens and can\u2019t fend off threats in an effective way, making you vulnerable to diseases. Sleep deprivation even shows on your face too, in the form of fatigues eye muscles and a sallowness of the skin. Some people even start hallucinating if their sleep cycle is highly disturbed.<\/p>\n

5. Micro-Sessions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is one of the most dangerous of all signs, which could even result in your death. How? Well, suppose you\u2019re driving a car in the broad daylight and your eyes start getting heavy. You fend off the onrush of sleep the best you can. But then, unknowingly, you drift off into a micro-sleep session, the staring wheel goes out of control and there\u2019s an accident. Instant death. Due to sleep deprivation. Just imagine the severity of the loss.<\/p>\n
