There Really is Nothing Like Sleep

When I didn't sleep well the other night I actually felt sick the next day. I can't even imagine what it must be like for you to not get sufficient sleep for such a long period of time.

Perhaps, you could get some good earmuffs, so that you do not hear them, but with neighbours like that that might be risky to do too, as at least the noise, is a warning to you, at times, as to what they might do next. Health issues can also cause lack of sleep problems, and can cause mental problems to develop in one too. In your situation, I would not like it either, but taking an afternoon snooze might help as someone else here said too. I like getting a good sleep, and a disturbed sleep always leaves me feeling deenergised, and tired, during the day.

I would feel like a zombie when lacking of sleep.

Oh yes, sleep regenerates the body. Chronic sleep deprivation, even if the effects aren't immediately apparent, can lead to a host of health issues over time. It's like a silent accumulation of effects that eventually manifest into noticeable ailments.

@RebeccasFarm Agree.A good sleep relaxes you.You get detached from all worldly affairs that cause stress and worries.

always those evil creatures, called neighbours. i agree, sleep is everything

I'm super sleepy right now and it's not even halfway through the day. I need a nap.

Everything about sleeping is interesting. How much you need. What happens while you sleep. How good it is for your body. Yes, so much.

I agree and I get my best sleep sleeping in my own bed.

Sleep is excellent for resting my weary body.

Sleep is important. I have always slept about 4 hours a night and will take a nap sometimes if I need one. For some reason after about 4 hours, I have a hard time falling back to sleep. This morning, I could have slept in, and was wanting to, but like clockwork I woke up after 4 hours and couldn't go back to sleep. I'm sorry you have bad neighbors

I agree, I enjoy sleeping, when I don't sleep enough i feel tired during the all day.

I wish I got more sleep. I take a nightly muscle relaxer and sleep med and often a pain pill and am still o luckly. sleep from about 11 pm to 4 am if I am luckly.

Yes, having good sleep is important. I sleep about 7 hours a day. I'm sorry you could sleep well due to the nuisance of neighbors. Try to take an afternoon nap every day.

Sleep? What is that ? I have not slept through the night in over a decade . . . I function "ok" but have no idea what being truly refreshed is. I wish for good decent sleep for both you and me .

Yes, good sleep is truly rejuvenating.

It seems that my body knows when it needs and doesn't need sleep. Usually the most I need is between 6 -7 hours and at times it can be only 5 hours,

I have maintained a healthy diet of sleep of at least 7 hours a day. After retirement, I take a nap too in the afternoon. I want to give my body the needed rest, especially my eyes.
