Is sleep necessary?

Question

Do our bodies depend on how much sleep we get?
​
​ I haven't been to sleep since yesterday morning. As soon as I got up, i caught up on some homework and studied for a good 5 hours. After that i went to the gym and worked out for 2 hours. Then, I came home and did more school work. After that I worked an 8 hour shift and now my body is feeling heavy and numb. I haven't slept in about 24+ hours. I feel like I'm stuck or paralyzed.

Answer

Wow is this a real question? Of course sleep is vital to life! After only a few days without sleep, the body will go into a mania and you can start hallucinating, and after only 11 days of total sleeplessness, you can die. Less than 8 hours of sleep every night can significantly inhibit concentration and productivity, alter your mood, increase your risk of heart disease, and make you age prematurely, among many other things. School age children need around 10 hours of sleep in order to grow and develop properly, as growth, cell repair, and brain development all occur during sleep. Due to the body's biological clock, it's also vital to get at least 2 of your hours of sleep before midnight, as your pineal gland produces peak amounts of melatonin at night when it senses darkness. It's especially important to get 8 hours or more if you're a student. Sleep aids long term and short term memory, concentration, and mental clarity.

Answer

Of course sleep is necessary. But one night without isn't going to cause major problems. Just go to bed extra early tonight so you don't start building a sleep debt.
