Extended data

Harm of poor sleep:

1, which will lead to depression.

Over time, lack of sleep and sleep disorders can lead to depression. Insomnia and depression are inextricably linked. According to the survey of 654.38 million people in 2007, the possibility of insomnia suffering from depression is five times that of non-insomnia. In fact, insomnia is often one of the harbingers of depression.

Insomnia and depression complement each other. Lack of sleep will aggravate depression, which will make sleep more difficult. On the positive side, treating sleep problems helps to relieve depression, and vice versa.

2, accelerate skin aging

Presumably, most people have experienced sallow skin and swollen eyes after staying up late for several nights. But this proves that long-term lack of sleep can lead to dull skin, wrinkles and dark circles. When you don't get enough sleep, your body releases more stress hormone cortisol. Excessive cortisol can decompose collagen in skin, and this protein can keep skin smooth and elastic. Deep sleep can repair skin tissue.

3, causing serious health problems.

Sleep disorders and chronic lack of sleep will increase your risk of these diseases: heart disease, heart attack, heart failure, arrhythmia, high blood pressure, stroke and diabetes. It is estimated that 90% of insomnia patients (people who are characterized by difficulty in falling asleep and easy to wake up) are accompanied by other health problems.

4, forgetful and slow

Sleep plays a decisive role in a person's thinking and learning ability, and lack of sleep will affect people's cognitive process in many ways. First of all, lack of sleep will damage people's attention, alertness, concentration, reasoning ability and problem-solving ability, which will lead to low learning efficiency.

5. Influence judgment

Lack of sleep will affect our understanding of things and people's reasonable judgment of events, because they can't accurately evaluate and act wisely. People who are deprived of sleep seem to be particularly prone to misjudgment.

In this fast-paced world, less sleep is becoming a symbol of glory. But sleep experts say that it is wrong to reduce sleep, and you may lose more than you gain. Especially if you are engaged in a job that values judgment, the influence of lack of sleep may be a big problem.
