What would happen if you didn’t sleep? - Claudia Aguirre 

My search history before a test: *How to sleep 8 hours in 3 hours*

Why didn't you do your homework?! I didn't wanna die of stroke

I know that avoiding sleep is bad, but I really like staying up for an entire night while my family is asleep. it's the only time where I don't feel suffocated by noises and annoying behavior.

A quick tip is before trying to go to bed have one action like (meditating, stretching, putting certain clothes on) do this action every single time before bed and after a month your body will recognize this action as the beginning of your sleep so it will help sleep hygiene

"Adolescents need 10 hrs of sleep" Department of education: "yall say something?"

Instead of sleeping, I'm watching this in bed at midnight.

Someone please send this to our education systems

I learned how important sleep is when I got into a routine in 7th grade, going to bed at 10 pm sharp (instead of my usual midnight-ish time). I noticed that I could focus on my schoolwork and absorbed information effortlessly. I'm sure results vary, but it definitely was like day and night.

I regret watching this. Now I’m sleep deprived AND paranoid.

Insomnia must be a nightmare. Sleep is one of the few joys in daily life.

As someone who works in a prison for 16 hour shifts overnight, this video was a real kick in the pants.

i needed this video. its been over 3 years that i've been sleeping in a really unhealthy times. At the first years it was pretty intense staying up til 3,5 or 6,7am but it got a bit better then and now its kinda happening again 3am is like my normal time going to sleep

Vid- "Not sleeping is harmful to your body" *me at 5am*- "hmmm is that so"

"Adolescents need 10 hours of sleep" *just put me in the coffin*

Oh nice, thanks for youtube for recommending this 8 years later. You really do know me well. Sleep deprived always.

The sound and voice are amazing, like honey for my ears and hearing

*forwards this to every teacher ive ever met*

I get 3-5 hours of sleep a day because of school and stress, I guess I'm going to die soon

amazing. well these videos with images help to understand better special the parts of the body, the symptoms and all.. thank u for this detailed explanation

Sleep is really important. Your body needs sleep to function throughout the day. Sleep rejuvenates the glial cells and the frontal cortex. Sleep helps to lower blood pressure. It does wonders.

bro, i should be dead by then

66% of adolescents are regularly sleep deprived *I wonder why*

One of the best explanation

Back in the early 80’s when I was in college I very regularly went 60 hours straight sans any sleep. In particular during my senior year I was awake from early Friday morning until late Sunday night. My routine was to leave right after my last Friday class and make a 3 1/2 drive home. Once there I visited with my girlfriend until I had to report to work at 11 pm Friday night to do the audit, working until 7 am. From there I’d go visit my parents for a bit and then spend the day with my girlfriend. We usually went out to some popular night clubs until I had to be at my hotel auditing job again at 11 pm until 7 am Sunday morning. After work I’d again visit family and my girlfriend until about 6 pm when I had to make the 3 1/2 drive back to college. I was always pretty exhausted by the time I got back to college but I always made it. Based on this video it sounds like it’s nearly impossible to do regular 60 hour periods of being awake. I don’t think I’d want to do that now that I’m in my 60’s but it really wasn’t all that difficult as a 21 - 22 year old.

To hell with this homework, I'm going to sleep.

**casually watched video at 1am**

Thanks for this 🧍

That's just too amazing. Thank you so much. ❣️😁

It's hard to get 10 hours of sleep when you have to wake up at 5:30 everyday

Wait... WE TEENS NEEDED 10?!

Enjoyed the fact that this was recommended at 4am mid all nighter- thanks phone

Good experiment, very useful, good sacrifice, hope that it was worth it

Hard to sleep 10 full hours when you have to wake up at 7 am...

Science: teenagers need at least ten hours of sleep. School: three. Take it or leave it.

I've tried to find an answer to my question for s long so I thought id try RU-vid comments. Why does my whole body tingle when I’m almost asleep? It's not a tingling like some body part is falling asleep due to restricted blood flow, it is more of an insanely pleasant sensation that can happen for hours or minutes while I'm almost asleep. It is honestly one of the best feelings/sensations I've ever felt. It usually happens when I sleep too much, too little or sleep and wake up at weird times.

Watching this as I'm on a night shift job and have to skip sleep tomorrow because family made plans in the middle of when I'm supposed to sleep. Exciting!

You become a college student. That's what happens.

lol show this to the education system and they won’t care

Cool electric guitar in the background, it’s a new personal theme

A couple of months ago I used to work night shifts and went straight to school, staying up for sometimes more than 24 h. At night when I finally had time to sleep my boyfriend noticed I frequently talked in my sleep, and once I looked it up, sure enough, sleep deprivation can cause sleeptalking. It was an alarm bell for me, and even though I did fine and thought I could handle little sleep, obciously it was affecting my body.

That moment when 90% of comments are from teenagers saying they can't get enough sleep because of school. There is such a problem with our education system if none of us know each other, have ever met each other, live in vastly different locations and we're all sleep deprived.

I feel like the entire global school system ignores the fact that teenagers need 10 hours of sleep. I’m lucky if I get 8

As a student who comes from a Southeast Asia country, our school system here usually starts the lesson at 7 a.m, not even 8 nor 9 a.m. Fatigue and drowsiness happen all the time with staying up to study and waking up too early.

As someone suffering w/insomnia 😪, & not having slept more than 6hrs in the past 2 months & no more than 7hrs in the past 3 yrs, I can say unequivocally that this vid is 110% accurate!! Wish it wasn't, but it is.

Trying to reduce my stroke risks but Twitter is lit af at 3 am for no reason.

School: “Children need 9-10 hours of sleep daily” Also school: *_”WE RIDE AT DAWN BICHES”_*

This music is amazing @TED-Ed

Teacher: Why are you sleeping in class? Me: do you want me to die?

Thanks FBI guy for recommending me this. You really do care lol

Thanks for the hard work 😀 I'm in middle school right now and I learned a few things from your channel 😄 keep the great work

Thank you so much.🌿🌿🌿💗😊

*”adolescences need 10 hours of sleep”* school: did i stutter? get to work.

schools will probably just say “wElL gO tO bEd EaRlIeR tHeN” like literally, just because you go to bed earlier doesn’t mean that you will get to sleep quicker. I actually end up staying awake for longer because I can’t go to sleep

Thank you, very useful 👍

Great explanation

The thing is that teens can't get enough sleep because of the amount of homework and things we have to do.

People who sleep 2-3 Hours: **Wakes up Tired* People who sleep 7-8 Hours: **Also Wakes up Tired*

I sure needed this

I'm Korean- and in high school, our classes ended at 10 PM and when I got home after taking the school bus it was like 10:30~11PM. Then I would eat fruits or snacks, maybe print out stuff that I need for the next day, wash up etc. Probably sleep around 1 AM if I'm lucky. I had to get on the bus by 7 AM (it came to my house) because we had to get to school by 7:40 AM. In my third year we even had to go to school on Saturdays from 10AM to 4:30PM i think? I remember that I used to get home on Saturdays and just start sleeping from 6 PM until next morning without even eating because i was just so tired.

how can i sleep when there’s so much responsibilities in life :((

TedEd: Teens need enough sleep School: I'm about to end this man's whole career

I have progressively worsening insomnia to the point I'm hallucinating. I got an injection of abilify maintena that gave me akathisia for over 2 years, after that passed some disease started that began with night sweats, dry skin and eyes, vision and hearing problems (hyperacusis & tinnitus), joint pain.. I gained 40 pounds since this started. All my autoimmune panels normal as well.. I seriously need sleep, I wake up every hour or 2 over like 8 times a night. Then I'm up for the day. Extremely exhausted

I never had a complete for years. It started when I was a child and became worse when I entered adolescence. After I discovered the bad effects of lack of sleep, I made efforts to improve my sleeping habits to get enough sleep. It's extremely difficult, but your brain and body will get used to the healthy pattern. Just be consistent. Now, despite disrupting my sleep pattern from time to time, I'm still wired to the healthy pattern.

"What would happen if you didn't sleep" Me at 3am: "hmm interesting"

Science: Adolescents need 10 hours of sleep. School: *Lets make children get up at 5 am to go to school*

Most needed video.

it’s literally 3am and of course, someone decided this is the best video for me

It is physically impossible to get 10 hours of sleep if you don't want to fail your exams and become the only failure in your family. Every one can relate.

"we are tired because signal from the enviroment telling us it's dark outside." My brain at 10pm : *nah dude, we've only just begun*

Friend had insomnia and didn’t sleep for a week, topped with exam stress (a levels) he had a psychotic break and his mental state deteriorated so radpidly he was in a psych ward sections by the end of the week. He was one of my closest friends, this happened a few days ago. Even now he’s just so so different.

I needed this

Sign: “Adolescence need 10 hours of sleep” School: That sign won’t stop me because I can’t even read!

"Teens need at least 8-10 hours of sleep each day" School: 8-10 = -2 😍

oh wow it's my favorite podcast on youtube

This video helped me stay awake learning why I shouldn't.

That kid who was awake for 11 days must’ve had the most satisfying relaxing best longest sleep in the world

Everyone's blaming school but were gonna ignore the fact your watching this at 2 am

Love the Daria reference in your "reaction time" cartoon!

Its 2am and I just got recommended this video after contemplating if i should go to bed or stay up

The fact 66% of students are regularly sleep deprived should indicate a problem that desperately needs fixing, but as a society we do nothing to help our students and instead punish them for sleeping in.

Who else is watching this while they should be asleep?

I watched this whole video, then proceeded to pull a all nighter watching your channel is this good or bad?

I wish we can tell this to schools, highschools ,organizers

"Just sleep faster" - Arnold Schwarzenegger

School: giving kids 3 hours of sleep Corona virus: I'ma turn that into 10 hours

Got recommended this at 3 am. I should really sleep

Me after getting only 4 hours of sleep and currently drinking a Red Bull: “...interesting”

I feel like everyone here decided to watch this video instead of sleeping 😂

"وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا"

In 2019 my mother and I went on a bus to the big smoke 500 miles away so I could get my skin cancer on my top lip removed. Unfortunately I hardly slept the entire time three days we were there because dear mother snored and kept me wake and when I finally dozed during the night it was only for several minutes at a time plus I was my Autism made me anxious and tense about the whole trip. On the third night we were on the bus going back home I started to hallucinate. I finally made it to bed around midnight when we got home and because I was back in my own bed and in my familiar surroundings I fell asleep almost instantly and didn't wake until around 11:00AM the next morning and felt refreshed again.

Schools: Why isn't your homework done? Students: wHy iSnT YoUr hOmEwOrk dOnE?

“Adolescents need 8-10 hours of sleep” “It could increase the risk of strokes” *guess I’ll die*

i was sleep deprived during my junior high school days, esp when the new normal way of studying was implemented and students havent adjusted yet. I literally see things moving even though theyre not and I always have heavy feeling

As an insomniac, I find this information really comforting

So let me get this straight. You’re telling me, teens need 10 hours of sleep which would mean if we were to *actually* do that, we’d have to have a bedtime at 9 or even 8 PM since most schools start at 6-7 AM. Everyone knows that no teenager will sleep in that early.

watches this while sleep deprived

Ive barely had 2 hours of sleep each day for the past week or so. Im currently really sick with fevers and my mind still denies to sleep. I really want to fix this issue but it just seems like my insomnia is getting worse. Melatonin pills don't help at all. I dont know what to do anymore but Ill try again and hope i have a good nights rest tonight. Get your sleep in yall and goodnight to whoever is reading this.

we do sleep dep training for work. air force. i saw a tiny brontosaurus in the field. it was fantastic.

speaker: *says all the bad effects about sleeping less than 7 hours* me: *regularly gets less than 5 hours of sleep because of school* me: great!
