Sleep Deprivation: Jia Yan
Personally I totally agree that lack of sleeping can cause a lot of health problems. I think the age and gender depending on which environment you are in will too cause health problems. For example, like my grandfather in his 90s, he tends to sleep lighter than compared to younger people. And I think more likely he too like other elderly will experience symptoms of sleep disorder in comparison in our younger age people. Basically, I think that we young people should be more aware of sleeping deprivation/disorder; hence we are able to prevent or to reduce what causes it.
First, going to bed and getting up at the same time everyday despite the busy day would help to develop some consistency in our sleeping patterns.
Second, avoiding exercising within two hours of bed time, if you were too exercising your body’s temperature and heart rate are affected by it. Thus causing your body is trying to recover from a recent workout which results in difficulty when trying to fall asleep.
Third, I personally think most youngsters would do very often or at least one time is playing computer games before sleeping. Before sleeping, you started playing games online would cause your mind to be hyper-active causing you to be unable to sleep for awhile. Constantly doing this can cause insomnia if the person’s mind is prolonging playing games.
Forth, I think most importantly is to avoid heavy meals prior to bedtime, this is the one everyone must be aware of. This is because after disgusting your last meal of the day, your body system digestion is still working and processing the food you just ate. By just going to sleep after meal could cause difficultly to fall asleep right away.
There are still more things that can be done to prevent sleep deprivation; these are just a few I knew of. I believe that by doing these at younger age, you could just prevent sleep deprivation and can even live a longer life compared to those have fluctuating habits of sleeping. In addition, getting plenty of rest is not only essential for your health and mental state, it just simply makes you feel much better and provide the needed energy to get via each day.
Here is an example of a news reporter staying late into the night to video News section. And also about the impact of having sleep deprivation.
