Cause Effect essay: The effects of lack of sleep



Sleep is something important as it is an important source of energy for us. When our body hibernate, we will be in a mode which our body is replacing the lost energy of our body throughout the day. Therefore, it is very important for us to have enough sleep. Sometimes, we may think that why should we sleep and what do we gain from sleeping through the night. We should bear in mind that sleeping is actually one of the main source of the health of our body and without it, we are more opened to various types of sickness as our body’s resistance will start to be weak. Therefore, we are more prone to fall sick.

  As we grow old, or workload actually increases. This is because we are more engaged with our work and we have to complete our work in a given time. This causes us to be sleep deprived. Eventually, due to ever increasing list of things which we need to compete, we tend to give more priority to our work than our rest. We assume that we could take rest and replace the amount of sleep that we had lost the next day. Unfortunately, our work never ends and hence, our sleep will also be lost once again. 

  In addition, sometimes sleep can be lost as we think too much before going to bed. This is a norm for many people because this happens too often in people’s life. For instance, when we are about to go to sleep, we tend to think of what is going to happen tomorrow and what will tomorrow bring us. This will eventually result in the loss of our sleep. The nature of humans is never to be satisfies with what they got and this leads them to continuously thinking and planning of things ahead of us. We spend more time worrying than sleeping.

  Lack of sleep has several consequences. One of the effects of lack of sleep is lack of sleep causes accidents to happen. This is because when our body does not get sufficient sleep, we are not able to focus clearly and this causes us to lose focus. For instance, when a person who is sleep deprived drives on the road, they will not be able to focus on the oncoming cars and this will eventually leads to accidents. This puts us at a big loss as accidents results in death or major injuries. 

  Furthermore, lack of sleep leads to bad health conditions.  A person is more prone to heart diseases and high blood pressure if they do not have enough sleep. These health problems will eventually lead to their downfall in their career and also personal life. Thus, life will not bring much for those who contracted these diseases as it limits their movements and involvements in their daily basis. This causes them to be less spirited and soon they will need to depend on others as they are unable to do things on their own.

  Moreover, lack of sleep makes a person to be forgetful. This is because they are unable to keep things in their long memory due to tiredness. Their memory will be limited and this will bring them loads of problems as they might forget important thing which needs to be done. They will need to depend on memo and notes due to the fact that they cannot remember something for a longer amount of time. Their work will also be affected badly as it reduces their capability to do something in a given time. Their marketability in work will be reduced because many companies will aim for a high profit and people who are less efficient are not wanted by them.

  Lack of sleep also causes us to be agitated and irritated easily. For instance, we will lose temper easily because we are too tired to think and bear with even small problems. This causes people surrounding us to be uncomfortable around us and soon we will get isolated if this continues. Therefore, we should make sure that we receive enough sleep.

  Last but not least, sleep is something which is very important in our life. Lack of sleep messes up our daily activities and puts us at a bad situation. This shows that we need to ensure that we have enough sleep as our body needs enough rest to function well. When we have sufficient amount of sleep, our body always stays in a healthy condition.
