Answers:
Sleep deprivation can have serious effects on your health in the form of physical and mental impairments!. Inadequate rest impairs our ability to think, to handle stress, to maintain a healthy immune system and to moderate our emotions!. In fact, sleep is so important to our overall health that total sleep deprivation has been proven to be fatal!.

Without adequate rest, the brain's ability to function quickly deteriorates!. The brain works harder to counteract sleep deprivation effects, but operates less effectively: concentration levels drop, and memory becomes impaired!.
Similarly, the brain's ability to problem solve is greatly impaired!. Decision-making abilities are compromised, and the brain falls into rigid thought patterns that make it difficult to generate new problem-solving ideas!. Insufficient rest can also cause people to have hallucinations!. Other typical effects of sleep deprivation include:

depression
heart disease
hypertension
irritability
slower reaction times
slurred speech
tremors!.
